Tomatillo Tipple

This mostly savory Tomatillo Tipple cocktail reminds us of a green Bloody Mary with spice, but is refreshing and perfect for a backyard gathering.
Tomatillo Tipple

This is a fun cocktail to make while you’re in the backyard grilling. While you can char the tomatillos under your broiler, throw them on the grill as it’s heating up and muddle together this drink to sip on while your barbecue dinner. It’s a little sweet, salty and spicy on the rim, and totally earthy and savory in the glass. Overall, it’s refreshing and just what we want to drink on a warm evening.

We used a special, award-winning vodka in this cocktail called Purus and we suggest you do too. For starters, it’s organic, made from a fine organic Italian grain in Northern Italy. It’s smooth and velvety, with aromas of nuts and warm bread. It brings subtle finishing flavors of stone fruit and refreshing minerals to the cocktail that really makes a difference. So don’t use just any old vodka!
