Smoke & Mirrors
Mezcal and blackberry meet in a cloud of tableside rosemary smoke — the berry sweetness dissolves into char and herb in a drink that's equal parts magic and booze.
Served in a rocks glass · Garnish: Smoldering rosemary sprig · Difficulty: medium
Ingredients
- 1.5 oz Mezcal
- 0.5 oz Crème de Mûre (Blackberry Liqueur)
- 0.75 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
- 0.25 oz Agave Nectar
- 1 sprig Fresh Rosemary Sprig (to torch)
Instructions
- Combine mezcal, crème de mûre, lemon juice, and agave in a shaker with ice.
- Shake vigorously and strain into a rocks glass over a large cube.
- Torch a rosemary sprig until smoking, then lay it across the rim.
- Serve immediately — the smoke should drift into the drink as it rests.
