Mezcal

Bow & Arrow
Mezcal and bourbon meet pineapple and cinnamon in this bar-worthy cocktail. Serve with a flaming presentation, or leave the pyrotechnics to the professionals.

Hot & Heavy
This cocktail combines spicy tequila and mezcal with honey and lemon.

Breakfast Daisy
This variation on the mezcal margarita leans on a quick Earl Grey tea syrup and grapefruit liqueur to evoke the feelings of a cozy morning.

Naked and Famous
This equal parts mezcal drink is beloved by everyone who tastes it.

Rosie Ranch Water
This variation on ranch water from Houston’s Rosie Cannonball brings sotol or mezcal and a spiced herbal salt to the refreshing tequila highball.

Redheaded Saint
A compelling combination of mezcal, tequila, fresh lime, ginger beer, and raspberry syrup.

New Spain
A riff on the Penicillin cocktail, with sherry and mezcal.

Going Out West
Put together spicy rye, smoky mezcal, and coffee-accented amaro, and it’s easy to understand why Joe Briglio, of Chicago’s Billy Sunday, describes this cocktail as “my interpretation of the flavors of the early American West and possibly a cowboy’s campfire.” The drink name is inspired by a Tom Waits song called “Goin’ Out West,” he adds.

Turmeric Hot Toddy
This golden-hued turmeric hot toddy from Claire Sprouse of Brooklyn’s Hunky Dory is wonderfully savory from the combination of nutty Amontillado sherry and earthy turmeric.

Make better cocktails at home by cracking open a bottle of mezcal.

Infinity Pool
Throw chopped celery stalks into a juicer (or blender) for a refreshing cocktail base. The vegetal flavor is mellowed by citrusy Lillet blanc and lemon juice, while its savory side is supported with mezcal and a pinch of smoked salt.

Division Bell
Tart, bitter orange kisses roasted agave.

Mezcal Mule
A classic recipe gone rogue.

Electron
A triple hit of earthy flavors.

Killer Bee
This is our Mexico-inspired twist on a classic cocktail called the Bee’s Knees, a light and refreshing drink made with gin, lemon, and honey syrup. The Killer Bee replaces the gin with mezcal.

La Pina
Smoky mezcal, fresh pineapple juice, serrano chile, and cilantro—this is one of my favorite cocktails. The mezcal gives it some edge, and the pineapple makes it easy drinking.

Arinato
I created the Arinato to be a lighter stirred drink and to celebrate the more delicate sides of mezcal. I use the 80-proof Ilegal Joven; paired with floral fortified wines, it makes for an easy-sipper that proves how elegant mezcal can be.
