Brisa Xamu

Brisa Xamu is a bright, bubbly, and vibrant "Oaxacan spritz" that beautifully wraps the smoky, artisanal character of Casa Xamu Espadín mezcal in bright, sun-drenched Italian flavors. It builds a light, celebratory base directly in a tall glass filled with ice by combining 2 oz of the Espadín mezcal, 2 oz of crisp prosecco, 1 oz of fresh orange juice, and 0.5 oz of bittersweet Aperol. Gently stirred to perfectly meld the effervescent and citrus notes without losing the bubbles, this refreshing concoction is elegantly finished with a fresh orange slice. Inspired by golden Oaxacan sunsets over agave fields, this cheerful, perfectly balanced sipper is the ideal companion for weekend brunches and warm afternoon celebrations.
