Horchata San Cosme

Horchata San Cosme is a rich, culturally inspired cocktail that beautifully pairs the smooth, artisanal warmth of Mezcal San Cosme with creamy, traditional Mexican flavors. It builds a comforting yet refreshing base by combining 2 oz of the espadín mezcal, 2 oz of earthy blue corn horchata, and 0.25 oz of bright lemon juice in a cocktail shaker. Vigorously shaken with ice until perfectly chilled, the silky mixture is poured into a glass over large ice cubes. This satisfying, creamy sipper is uniquely finished with a savory agave worm salt rim, offering an irresistible balance of sweet, smoky, and umami notes.
