When it comes to great cocktail recipes, a few things are usually present. You need a standup spirit, a good mixer, and often a nice bracing hit of citrus for balance. But what of the more exciting additions like prickly pear that we tend to overlook (or use in different arenas)?

The flowering cactus produces edible fruit that's both wildly colorful and downright delicious. The flavor is a bit like melon or strawberry, sometimes showing a touch of bubble gum or hibiscus. And it's a great thing to have in your cocktail-making arsenal, and not just as a garnish.

And it had a lot to do with my experiences surrounding the agave-based spirit when I was in my twenties.

I know I'm not the only one who spent a portion of their drinking years without fully embracing tequila. Many drinkers only think of this hard alcohol as a shooter paired with lime and salt or as the base for turbo-charged Margaritas. That's a shame. Tequila is a versatile, complex spirit.
