And I like mezcal, I like compari (that’s why I could even make it!) but this is just one of the most fetid unpleasant drinks I have ever made. The bite of the mezcal is too cut by the compari, and the herbal notes lose their top notes and just leave you with the dry feeling on the back of your tongue. All the goodness is lost. No joy remains.
Give this to your curious teen and they will gladly stay sober until the day they move out. Jesus.
I had something that I’m pretty sure is one of these and ngl it kinda put me off of both mezcal and negronis lmao
Strongly recommend you to try Mezcal again on its own or in a sweet margarita. Probably one of the most delicious liquors ever made in my opinion and most of the production is done by peasant farmer-distiller cooperatives which is neat!
