Instructions

The Eclipse of Oaxaca is a sultry, complex cocktail that marries the smoky essence of mezcal with the nuanced bitterness of amaro, complemented by a whisper of citrus to create a harmonious balance. This cocktail is perfect for those who appreciate a deep, layered flavor profile and a refreshing edge. Ingredients: - 2 oz Mezcal (preferably a joven variety for its pure smoky character) - 1 oz Amaro (choose one with a balance of bitter, herbal, and sweet notes) - 1/2 oz Fresh Lime Juice - 1/2 oz Agave Syrup (adjust sweetness to taste) - 1 Dash Orange Bitters - Grapefruit Peel (for garnish) - Fresh Sage Leaf (for garnish) Instructions: 1. Fill a shaker with ice to chill it while you gather your ingredients. 2. In the shaker, pour 2 oz of Mezcal, 1 oz Amaro, 1/2 oz fresh lime juice, and 1/2 oz agave syrup. 3. Add a single dash of orange bitters to introduce a subtle, citrusy depth. 4. Remove the ice from the shaker and discard any excess water. 5. Add fresh ice to the shaker and seal it tightly. 6. Shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds until well chilled. 7. Double strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass to remove any ice shards. 8. Express a grapefruit peel over the cocktail to release the oils, then drop it in. 9. Gently slap the sage leaf between your hands to release its aroma and place it as a final garnish on the drink. Serve in a chilled coupe glass to enhance the sophisticated and intimate experience of the Eclipse of Oaxaca. The glass not only showcases the cocktail's rich hue but also concentrates the aromatics for an enthralling first sip. Enjoy this
