Ingredients

1 oz Mezcal
1 oz Reposado Tequila
0.75 oz Yellow Chartreuse
0.75 oz Lemon juice
0.25 oz Ginger syrup

Story

When exploring broader tequila and Chartreuse combinations, this drink shifted the conversation toward Yellow Chartreuse for a softer and rounder herbal character. Mezcal and ginger gave it a smoky-earthy backbone without becoming heavy.

Method

Add all ingredients to a shaker with cubed ice.
Shake until chilled.
Strain into a chilled coupe.
Garnish with dehydrated ginger or a lemon slice.

Notes

Yellow Chartreuse keeps the drink more floral and less aggressive than the Green Chartreuse builds.
