Scotch and mezcal combined in the same drink is not that common, and that's the exakt reason this recipe caught our attention. ⁠ ⁠ We really like how tasty it turned out, sipping this drink was pure enjoyment. We served it in heavy, ice-cold rocks glasses for that extra luxurious feel . . . and it worked!⁠ Peat's Dragon Recipe by Kyle Jones Ingredients: 1,5 oz scotch⁠ 1 oz mezcal⁠ 0,5 oz fino sherry⁠ 0,5 oz agave syrup⁠ 0,25 oz fresh lemon juice Mixing: Combine all of the ingredients in a sha

In today's cocktail we are using clear ice spheres, made by ourselves with a system we bought in Japan. The recipe doesn't specifically say to serve the drink over ice, but as these coupes are rather large we needed the ice as a filler. Also, those of you following the cocktail brainchild Morten over at @thecocktail.blog [https://www.instagram.com/thecocktail.blog/] are probably familiar with his #cubesincoupes movement, encouraging us to use ice also in cocktails served in coupes.⁠ ⁠ And these

Tequila and lime is a classic combination that is always good. In this recipe elderflower liqueur acts as a sweetener and Punt e Mes brings both flavour and a fantastic colour. ⠀ This recipe is very enjoyable, and we are extra fond of the tequila and mezcal mix - they combine very well. ⠀ Salud!

In this post we're shaking a “Loisaida Avenue” cocktail.⁣ The drink recipe is by Leo Robitschek [https://www.instagram.com/lrobitschek/], one of our biggest inspirations when it comes to craft cocktails with surprising ingredients, compositions and even drink names.⁣ ⁣ In this drink there is favorite ingredient green Chartreuse as well as a deliciously big splash of fresh lemon juice. The jalapeno-infused tequila combined with the smoky mezcal gives the drink a pretty cool kick, which is perf

We’ve been wanting to use saffron in a cocktail for a long while, but we haven’t really found a recipe that speaks to us until now. But when we saw the Niokronors-cocktail by Emil Åreng [https://www.instagram.com/emilareng/] we knew this was the one.⁣ ⁣ It’s almost insane what intense color just a tiny amount of saffron contributes with. We made a saffron simple syrup, that we later added lemon juice to, trying to find the perfect balance between sweet and sour.⁣ ⁣ Combining this powerful syru

We love mezcal. This smoky agave spirit is so full of character and flavour, and it always makes for an interesting cocktail. In the Mezcalita, mezcal gets to be the star supported by its sibling tequila as well as fresh lime juice and sweet and nutty orgeat. The result, a cloudy cocktail that contrasts so nicely with the clear ice we used. The rubber coasters by @champ.co [https://www.instagram.com/champ.co/] are made of recycled airplane tyres.

So this is Matt’s riff on The Corpse Reviver No 2. Gin is subbed out for mezcal which is what got us hooked on this recipe. And as there’s also Suze in the mix, which we absolutely love, it was a no-brainer to start shaking. Rinsing a glass with absinthe might seem like a a lot of work for such a small amount of liquor, but do not skip this step - it adds a surprising depth of flavour to the drink. The first sip om the Vida Fria is a rather bitter experience, but already on the second sip your

Nothing better than a solid equal parts cocktail is there! This one is of particular interest given its distinct ingredients. Mezcal - this smoky agave spirit that turns any cocktail into an aromatic and characteristic experience when mixed with. Punt e Mes - a very elegant vermouth with just the right sweetness to act as a good counterpart to other ingredients. Campari - the Italian amaro we would struggle to be without. Its red brown colour and its bittersweet flavour is unique. Cynar - th
