Tamarind Puree
Instructions
  1. Add the simple syrup to a mixing glass and lightly muddle the slices of serrano chile.
  2. Before you add the rest of the ingredients, prepare your glass by coating part of the rim with lemon juice, then dip the rim into the salt.
  3. Add remaining ingredients to the mixing glass, fill with ice, and shake vigorously for 10 seconds.
  4. Double strain over ice into an old fashioned glass, garnish with a lemon wedge and serve.
Tamarind Puree
  1. Crack open the tamarinds and removing the seeds/pulp from the pods. Add to saucepan with water and cook over medium heat until the mixture comes to a simmer.
  2. Remove from heat and let the pulp steep for 30 minutes. As the pulp soaks, it will soften and separate from the seeds.
  3. Pour the puree through a fine mesh strainer, lightly pressing on the seeds with a spoon to loosen as much pulp as possible, and let cool.
