History:

This recipe is from Ryan Chetiyawardana in 2009, who shared his recipe at The Cabinet Room, London during the UK finals of that year's World Class bartending competition.

The Silk Stocking originated in the late 1970s - early 1980s, and the earliest cocktail book I've seen it referenced is as a blended cocktail in Helen Spence's 1982 book Cocktails For Two.

Review:

So smooooooth but still retains a tequila bite and a hint of chocolate and fruit.
