This cocktail delicately balances the spice, sweetness, and smokiness, making it perfect for sipping as the sun sets. Served in a chilled coupe glass, it offers an elegant presentation that matches its sophisticated taste profile. Ingredients: - 1 oz aged rum - 1 oz tepeztate mezcal - 0.5 oz luxardo maraschino liqueur - 0.25 oz ginger liqueur - 0.25 oz homemade limoncello - 0.5 oz lime juice - 1 dash chili bitters - 1 dash habanero bitters - Garnish: brandied cherry Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the aged rum, tepeztate mezcal, luxardo maraschino liqueur, ginger liqueur, homemade limoncello, and lime juice. 2. Add both chili and habanero bitters to introduce a subtle, warming spice. 3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until well-chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass. 5. Garnish with a brandied cherry on a skewer laid across the rim. The Twilight Tempest provides a journey through layers of flavor, starting with the sweet citrusy notes and evolving through maraschino and ginger's depth, finally leaving a lingering warmth from the bitters and the smoky embrace of mezcal. Each sip is a discovery of contrast and harmony, perfect for those seeking a modern cocktail with a memorable twist.
