Its sweet-and-bitter profile, derived from Campari\u00ae and orange marmalade, balances the intensity of these flamb\u00e9ed cuts.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>For cuts with mole or deep, complex flavors<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Beef Tenderloin in Ancestral Black Mole pairs naturally with the Oaxaca cocktail. Since the cocktail itself contains mole as an ingredient, it creates a rare, seamless flavor continuity between the plate and the glass.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>For Surf and Turf<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Surf and Turf\u2014combining tenderloin and shrimp\u2014benefits from a versatile cocktail like the Yucat\u00e1n.
