The Last Word

First time I tasted this was in the PX speakeasy in Alexandria and I knew I needed to have more; which is what I've been doing a little too much of really...

Equal parts gin, green Chartreuse, maraschino liqueur and fresh lime juice shaken in a shaker with ice. Change the gin for vodka, tequila, or mescal and a whole new drink is poured. Easy peasy lime squeezy.

Can't remember where I found this or how long I've even had it sitting around ready to make (was missing an ingredient) but I know that I need to find more cocktails with mezcal. I've had a few recently and been on the look out for more.

 

1 oz Sombra mezcal

3/4 oz Aperol

1/2 oz Luxardo maraschino liqueur

3/4 oz fresh lime juice

Lime twist

Crushed ice.

 

Mix first four ingredients in shaker with ice and pour over crushed ice. Add the lime (or other citrus) twist.

 

All I know is it came from here and it is well worth buying the maraschino liqueur for.
