Ingredients
  

  • 2 slices ginger
  • 2 slices jalapeno
  • 3-4 leaves culinary sage
  • 4 pieces blueberry
  • .75 ounces agave
  • 1 ounce lime juice fresh
  • 3 ounces Phantom Red

Method
 

  1. In your shaker, place chili. Break in fresh ginger, invigorating with its scent.
  2. Add in fresh culinary sage and agave. Muddle the ginger, sage, and chili into the agave to incorporate flavors well.
  3. Squeeze lime, then pour in Red wine. Add ice and shake.
  4. Strain the recipe over ice into desired glass. Alternatively, you can dump the drink but note that it will contain fresh sage and ginger pieces, which may be unsavory to bite into.
  5. Garnish with sage sprig. For spooky effect, safely use kitchen torch to lightly burn the end of the sage garnish for smoke.
