\"Fuzzy<\/p>\n

Tequila your spirit of choice? Messing with Mezcal on the side? Then I’ve probably seen you at the bar at Anepalco’s Cafe<\/a> in Orange. And, considering it’s National Tequila Day you should be paying the cocktail auteur Cesar Cerrudo a visit ‘cuz I know he is mixing up all kinds of goodness in a glass.<\/p>\n

My summer fave is the Fuzzy Vie (above) with grapefruit juice and, just looking at that frosted glass makes my mouth water and my involuntary reflex is to wrap my fingers around its smooth coolness and bring it to my lips – god forbid it’s someone else’s drink.<\/p>\n

\"Illegal<\/p>\n

In fact, it was last year on National Tequila Day that I savored the Fuzzy Vie and a few more of Cesar’s creations with some friends. As dusk fell, a mysterious beam of light struck the cross on the bottle of Ilegal Mezcal<\/a>. I kid you not, it was a sign that would have a more devout person swearing that they had seen an apparition of Sister Guadalupe.<\/p>\n

But don’t just take my word for it, Anepalco’s unique Mexican\/French cuisine, passionately cultivated by Danny Godinez, Chef\/Owner of Anepalco’s Cafe, and Cesar’s cocktails have been featured in\u00a0Chilled Magazine<\/a> and Liquor.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Fuzzy Vie is the perfect foil for the robust flavors and sultry heat of the “Not Paella”. Creamy rice is the pedestal upon which scallops, shrimp, spicy chorizo, and Jidori chicken sit, surrounded by a pool of yellow veloute.<\/p>\n

\"Not<\/p>\n

The menu reflects the seasons, but there are a few not-to-miss dishes that are Anepalco standards, like the Pambazo Torta and Ceviche Amarillo.<\/p>\n

We’re talking cocktails today, so let me share this one recipe courtesy of Anepalco’s and \u00a0Cesar Cerrudo. The story behind the Do\u00f1a Maggo is based on the three magos (wise men) – a play on the words magical,<\/em>\u00a0for the wise men, margarita<\/em>, the woman’s name, and Do\u00f1a, the title that precedes a woman’s name in Spanish.<\/p>\n
