Instructions

Craft a journey through the heart of Oaxaca with this smoky, yet refreshingly nuanced mezcal cocktail. A celebration of traditional flavors with a modern twist, it's perfect for those evenings when you long for adventure from the comfort of your own home. **Ingredients:** - 2 oz Mezcal (preferably joven for its clear, pure agave flavor) - 1 oz Fresh Lime Juice - 1/2 oz Agave Nectar - 1/2 oz Ancho Reyes Verde (green chili liqueur for a subtle heat) - 3/4 oz Homemade Hibiscus Syrup (see below for preparation) - 2 dashes Orange Bitters - Egg white from one large egg (for froth and texture) - Ice - Garnish: Dehydrated lime wheel and a sprig of thyme **Homemade Hibiscus Syrup Preparation:** Bring 1 cup of water to a boil, add 1/2 cup of dried hibiscus flowers, and simmer for 5 minutes. Strain the flowers out, add 1 cup of granulated sugar to the hibiscus water, and stir until dissolved. Cool before using and store any leftovers in the refrigerator. **Glass:** Serve in a chilled coupe glass to enhance the aromatics and maintain the elegance of the cocktail. **Instructions:** 1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the mezcal, fresh lime juice, agave nectar, Ancho Reyes Verde, homemade hibiscus syrup, and orange bitters. 2. Add the egg white to the mix. 3. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for 15-20 seconds to emulsify the egg white. 4. Add ice to the shaker and shake again vigorously until well chilled. 5. Strain into the chilled coupe glass. 6. Garnish with a dehydrated lime wheel and a sprig of thyme to add an aromatic allure to each sip. **The Twilight in Oaxaca** is not just a cocktail; it's a sensory escape. Let the smoky whispers of mezcal blend with the vibrant tang of lime, the warmth of chili, and the depth of hibiscus for a mesmerizing experience. Enjoy responsibly and let your taste buds dance to the rhythm of Oaxaca's twilight.
