5th & Adams

A bright and vegetal cocktail that perfectly balances Mezcal with the bitter, grapefruit flavors of Aperol, freshly muddled cucumber, and lime juice.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 oz. mezcal

  • 1 oz. pineapple juice

  • 3/4 oz. ginger syrup

  • 1/2 oz. fresh lemon juice

  • 2 dashes Peychaud’s bitters

Instructions:

  • Combine all the ingredients in a shaker and shake with ice. Double-strain into a coupe. Garnish.

Ginger Syrup:

  • Combine 1/4 cup of sugar, 2 Tbsp. of fresh ginger juice, and 1 Tbsp. of water in a blender and process until completely smooth and emulsified; it may take as long as 10 minutes. Use immediately.
