Xtabentun liqueur is a distinctive spirit from the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, made from anise seed, fermented honey produced by bees from the xtabentún flower, and rum. It has a unique, sweet and slightly spicy flavor.

In cocktails, Xtabentun can be used to add a honeyed sweetness with a hint of anise flavor. It's particularly effective in cocktails that call for exotic and nuanced profiles, such as in a Mayan Mule or a variant of a margarita. This liqueur blends well with tequila or rum, enhancing tropical and herbal notes.
