History

Smoky, tangy, and complex with layers of flavour, where mezcal happily dominates. This cocktail also works well strained over ice in an old-fashioned glass.

Stephen Wicker created this drink in 2016 at the Raleigh Bar in Miami Beach, Florida. His original recipe uses twice the amount of ginger syrup, but the syrup he makes in-house has a 1:1 concentration.
