Story
Once mezcal entered the conversation, the focus became balancing smoke against the soft floral quality of blanc vermouth. This recipe emerged as the restrained, elegant mezcal option — lighter than a Negroni riff and more aromatic than an agave martini.
Method
- Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass with cubed ice.
- Stir until chilled and integrated.
- Strain into a chilled coupe or over fresh ice in a rocks glass.
- Garnish with a grapefruit twist.
Notes
-
- Yellow Chartreuse was suggested as an alternate modifier during development.
-
- Dual glassware options were part of the original concept.
