Time 10m

Yield 1 cocktail (plus extra beet syrup)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 cups sugar
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
3 large beets, peeled and roughly chopped
1 ounce fresh lime juice, plus lime wedge for garnish
1 ounce mezcal
2 ounces seltzer
1 ounce ginger beer

Steps:

Make the beet syrup: Bring 1 cup water, the sugar, honey and vinegar to a simmer in a small saucepan. Simmer until the sugar dissolves, about 10 minutes. Add the beets and simmer until softened, about 20 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve and let cool.
For each cocktail: Combine 3/4 ounce beet syrup, the lime juice and mezcal in a shaker; shake well. Strain into an ice-filled glass. Add the seltzer and ginger beer. Garnish with a lime wedge.

Tips for Making Beetle Juice:

Choose ripe elderberries. Elderberries that are too young or too old will not have the best flavor and the juice will be less flavorful.
Use a good quality lemon. This will help to brighten the flavor of the juice and prevent it from being too tart.
Don't overcook the elderberries. If you cook them for too long, they will lose their color and flavor.
Strain the juice thoroughly. This will remove any seeds or pulp that could make the juice gritty.
Sweeten the juice to taste. You can use sugar, honey, or maple syrup to sweeten the juice, depending on your preference.
Add a splash of lemon juice. This will help to brighten the flavor of the juice and prevent it from being too sweet.
Serve the juice chilled. Beet juice can be served as a refreshing drink on a hot day or as part of a cocktail.

Conclusion:

Beetle juice is a delicious and refreshing drink that can be made with just a few simple ingredients. It's perfect for a hot summer day or as part of a festive gathering. So, next time you're looking for a new drink to try, give beetle juice a try.
