Los Pacaminos Margarita

Succulent Blood is a vibrant, mezcal-forward cocktail that perfectly balances earthy smokiness with the juicy sweetness of blood orange. The addition of cinnamon syrup and clove-rich falernum brings a layer of warm, sweet spice, while a touch of fresh lime juice lifts the entire profile. Shaken and served in a chilled coupe, this characterful drink is beautifully garnished with a dehydrated blood orange wheel.
