Hướng dẫn
Vampiros may be made in a tall glass or an old fashioned glass. Bartenders may first "rim" the glass with Kosher Salt, which is done by placing a layer of Kosher Salt on a chopping board, moistening the glass' rim with lime juice or water, and then placing the upside down glass rim onto the Kosher Salt, so that the salt sticks to the moistened rim. The second step is to fill half the glass with ice and add one or two shooter glasses full of high quality Tequila. The next stage is to add the flavouring elements. This is done by squeezing a fresh lime into the glass, adding a few grains of salt, adding citrus-flavoured soda pop, until the glass is 4/5 full, and then adding spicy Viuda de Sanchez (or orange juice, lime juice and pico de gallo). The final step is to stir the ingredients so that the flavours are properly blended.
The Vampiro is an IBA New Era Drinks cocktail made with tequila, tomato juice, orange juice, lime juice, sugar syrup, and a pinch of salt, served in an old-fashioned glass — sometimes with a salted rim. It is essentially a tequila-based cousin of the Bloody Mary, incorporating the savory depth of tomato with the brightness of citrus and the distinctive agave character of tequila. It is particularly popular in Mexico and the American Southwest.
History & Origins
The Vampiro originated in Mexico, where it evolved from the local tradition of mixing tequila with tomato-based chasers and citrus. It became the signature drink of the Gran Hotel Presidente in Acapulco in the 1960s, though the recipe has evolved considerably since then. The IBA recognized it in its New Era Drinks category, acknowledging its status as a contemporary cocktail with distinct regional roots.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Tequila's agave earthiness with fresh tomato, orange citrus, lime tartness, and a subtle salinity. Palate: Complex and savory-sweet, with tequila providing an earthy backbone; tomato juice adds body and umami depth, orange juice contributes sweetness and brightness, and lime provides tartness that keeps the savory element in balance. Finish: Dry and slightly savory with lingering agave and tomato.
Pro Tip
Rim half the glass with salt and chili powder for an authentic Mexican presentation and to add heat that complements the tequila's agave character.
