A uniquely rich and velvety take on a margarita. This recipe blends mezcal with fresh avocado, lime juice, and agave, resulting in a creamy, bright, and slightly smoky cocktail.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz. mezcal

  • 1 oz. fresh lime juice

  • ¾ oz. agave syrup

  • ¼ ripe avocado

  • Chili salt for rim

Instructions:

  • Rim a glass with chili salt and add ice and set aside. In a shaker, add the avocado and ice. Shake hard to break down the avocado. Add the mezcal, lime, agave and shake until cold. Strain into a prepared rocks glass. Garnish.
