That's a Bad Idea
Inspired by Curry Baker's YouTube channel, this Reposado Tequila Daisy is deceptively bright, offering a fruity allure that quickly gives way to a subtle, lingering heat, much like the consequences of a 'bad idea' in the film.

History
This Daisy-style cocktail is a playful nod to director Curry Baker's 'That's a Bad Idea' YouTube channel, and Bear's pivotal choice in the film. It substitutes the traditional orange liqueur with Luxardo Maraschino for a unique cherry-almond depth, while the chili adds a surprising, unforgettable kick.
