Number Of Ingredients 8

2 ounce(s) tequila
1/4 ounce(s) mezcal (for rinseing glass)
1 ounce(s) honey syrup or to taste
3/4 ounce(s) fresh lemon juice
2 dash(es) angostura bitters
HONEY SYRUP
1/2 cup(s) honey
1/2 cup(s) water

Steps:

  • Rinse a highball glass with the mezcal, coating the inside of the glass with a thin layer and dumping out whatever doesn't stick.
  • Add the tequila, honey syrup and lemon juice to a shaker with ice, and shake until chilled.
  • Pour into the prepared glass, and add 2 dashes of the bitters.
  • Garnish with a lemon peel if desired
  • Honey syrup: Add the honey and water to a small saucepan over medium heat. You can experiment and decide how much of a honey flavor you want in your syrup. The more honey you use, the thicker the syrup and stronger in flavor it will be.
  • Stir until blended. Strain into a jar and seal tightly with a lid. Will keep for 1 month in the refrigerator.
