This is one of the standout cocktails served at the Barrio restaurant in Seattle. It's probably the best non-whiskey cocktail I've ever had. Choose a good quality, smoky mezcal. Ingredients:
ice |
1 fluid ounce bitter orange aperitif (such as campariĀ®) |
1 fluid ounce mezcal |
1/2 fluid ounce amaro liqueur |
1/2 fluid ounce dry vermouth |
3 dashes chocolate or mole bitters (such as bittermensĀ® or fee brothersĀ®) |
1/2 teaspoon single malt scotch whiskey |
1 lemon zest, for garnish |
Directions:
1. Place ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. Pour in Campari, mezcal, Amaro, and vermouth. Shake in a few dashes of bitters. Stir or shake well and strain into a cocktail glass. Drizzle with a few drops of peaty, smoky Scotch. Twist the lemon rind over the drink and drop it in. |
