Maravilla

A moody, spirit-forward cocktail with a chocolatey backbone. It stirs mezcal with brown crème de cacao, a touch of Amaro Montenegro, and chocolate bitters to create a drink that is delicately bittersweet and deeply complex.

Ingredients:

• 60 ml Del Maguey Vida Clásico Mezcal

• 15 ml De Kuyper Brown Crème de Cacao

• 7.5 ml Amaro (e.g., Montenegro)

• 8 drops Bob's Chocolate bitters

• 2 dashes Orange Bitters by Angostura

Instructions:

• Select and pre-chill an OLD-FASHIONED GLASS.

• Prepare a garnish of an orange zest twist.

• Stir all ingredients with ice.

• Fine strain into a chilled glass.

• Express orange zest twist over the cocktail and use as a garnish.
