Tomato Margarita With Fennel Salt Recipe

1. 1

   : Combine the tomato and tequila in a blender. Pulse a few times on medium to break up the tomato then /blend for about 5 more seconds to form a pulpy puree. Strain the puree through a very fine mesh strainer or a less fine one lined with a double layer of cheesecloth. Stir it gently a few times as it strains, but do not press. Strain until it stops dripping on its own, about 15 minutes. Store in the fridge if not using immediately.

2. 2

   : Toast the fennel seeds in a medium skillet over medium heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Place toasted fennel seeds in a spice grinder or a clean coffee grinder and pulse until the seeds are about the same texture as the kosher salt, about 10 pulses. Combine the ground fennel with the kosher salt. Store in a small jar until ready to use.

3. 3

   : Moisten the rim of a cocktail glass with lime juice, rim with fennel salt, and set aside. Add ice to prepared glass. Pour tomato tequila, agave, and lime juice into a cocktail shaker and fill with ice. Shake until well chilled, about 20 seconds. Strain into prepared glass and serve immediately.
