Put all ingredients into a shaker. Add ice and shake hard for about 15 seconds. Remove the ice and shake it again. Strain the cocktail into a double rocks glass with a big ice cube.

Editor's Note

Italicus and elderflower syrup create a double-floral layer over a classic tequila sour. The bergamot and agave play off each other, resulting in a silky, aromatic, and modern sour.

This looks absolutely stunning! The combination of tequila, Italicus, and elderflower sounds incredibly aromatic and refreshing. That beautiful hibiscus garnish on the foam is the perfect finishing touch. Cheers!
