Grumpy Dingo Radio Batanga Cocktail

The Batanga Cocktail was created by legendary bartender Don Javier in Tequila, Mexico in 1961. It was a very good year...and it was a very good cocktail. Don was known for ritualistically stirring all of his cocktails with a knife. No doubt about it, the guy knew how to cut through all the clutter and deliver a fantastic drink.
