Instructions

A tantalizing blend of smoky, sweet, and spicy notes, the Twilight in Oaxaca is a cocktail that encapsulates the essence of a sunset in the Mexican highlands. Rich blackberries marry with the earthy tones of mezcal, while a zing of ginger adds excitement to each sip, creating a drink that's both complex and refreshing. Ingredients: - 2 oz Mezcal (preferably joven) - 1 oz Fresh blackberry puree (from about 6-8 muddled blackberries) - 3/4 oz Fresh lemon juice - 1/2 oz Ginger syrup (homemade or store bought) - 1/4 oz Creme de Cassis - Ginger beer (to top off) - Fresh blackberries and a thin slice of ginger (for garnish) - Ice cubes Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the fresh blackberries to create a puree. 2. Add the smoky mezcal, fresh lemon juice, ginger syrup, and Creme de Cassis to the shaker with the blackberry puree. 3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 10-15 seconds until well-chilled. 4. Double strain the mixture into a chilled highball glass filled with ice to remove the blackberry seeds and pulp. 5. Top off the cocktail with a splash of ginger beer, giving it a gentle stir to integrate. 6. Garnish with a skewer of fresh blackberries and a thinly sliced ginger. 7. Serve immediately and enjoy the layered flavors of Oaxaca twilight! The Twilight in Oaxaca cocktail should be served in a highball glass, allowing the full spectrum of flavor notes to be enjoyed with every sip. The smokiness of the mezcal, paired with the tartness of the blackberry and the spice of the ginger, makes for a cocktail experience that's both innovative and unforgettable.
