The Social Drinker

It’s Cinco de Mayo, and while a well-made Margarita is always welcome, we wanted to make something a bit more exciting. Enter, The Devil’s Garden!
FULL RECIPE BELOW

—–THE DEVIL’S GARDEN—-

What you’ll need:
1 ½ oz Reposado Tequila
½ oz Chipotle Infused Mezcal*
½ oz Cynar
1 Dash Angostura Bitters
¾ oz Agave Nectar
¾ oz Lime Juice
4 to 6 Mint Leaves

*To make the Chipotle Infused Mezcal you’ll need:
1 Dried Chipotle Pepper
1 Cup Mezcal

How to make the Chipotle Infused Mezcal:
Toast the pepper in a pan over high heat until it begins to smoke a little

Remove from heat and place it in a jar.

Add 1 cup of Mezcal* and seal tightly.

Let sit overnight.

Make sure you’ve done this the night before you want to make your cocktail.

How to Mix It:
In an ice shaker, combine mint, lime juice, agave, Cynar, mescal, and tequila.

Shake well for at least 30 seconds.

Strain into an iced coup.

If you’d like you can garnish with a sprig of Mint.
