This cocktail combines the rustic and sophisticated notes of mezcal with a liqueur-infused cherry and almond symphony, rounded off with a touch of citrus to elevate its flavor profile. Ideal for a sultry evening, the Cherry Almond Mezcalita is a testament to the versatility of traditional ingredients reimagined in a contemporary mix. Ingredients: - 2 oz Mezcal - 1 oz Cherry liqueur - 0.5 oz Amaretto (almond liqueur) - 0.5 oz Fresh lime juice - 2 dashes of Orange bitters - Garnish: Brandied cherry and a thin slice of lime - Ice Glass: Cocktail glass (also known as a martini glass) Instructions: 1. Begin by chilling the cocktail glass; this can be done by placing it in the freezer or filling it with ice water for a few minutes before you start mixing your drink. 2. In a mixing glass, combine the mezcal, cherry liqueur, amaretto, and fresh lime juice. 3. Add the orange bitters to bring a subtle complexity to the mix. 4. Fill the mixing glass with ice, then stir the cocktail mixture gently. The aim is to chill the drink while maintaining its clarity and texture, so avoid shaking. 5. Discard the ice or water from your now-chilled cocktail glass. 6. Strain the mixture into the prepared glass, ensuring a smooth pour. 7. Garnish with a brandied cherry and a thin slice of lime rested on the rim for an elegant presentation. Serve immediately and enjoy the deep, smoky flavors of the mezcal dancing with the sweet and nutty notes of cherry and almond, all while the tang of lime adds a refreshing edge to this exquisite concoction.
