Oh my god, he is insane! I went out the other night and a friend bought the group of us a round of Patrón shots. I should have thrown that shot right over my shoulder. Instead, I drank it. It was gross. It burned. I guess that's what tequila is supposed to do. I like my tequila mixed in margaritas not served up to taste like gasoline.
BoPo: it's similar (and in the same heat range), but not exactly the same. The tequila cuts the heat a little, and I had a White Russian right after to heal my palate (followed by a Blood Orange mojito and an Irish coffee). You'd've dug it.
I have a great fondness for tequila as well as for assorted peppers, and I'm sure the combo is rocking together. I can actually see the habanero working even better with a smokey mezcal.
Sounds like you guys had a blast.
Damnit, now I want mezcal and, even though there's a bottle just steps away, I actually have work to do tonight. Damn. Damn. Damn damn damn.
Yeah man, that's why they say "AFTER" in all caps on that waiver. Got hydrocortisone ointment? The glycerin-based stuff goes on smoother than the cream.
Sounds like youse had a great time. Woohoo birthday girl!
