Mex Martini

Mex Martini is a beautifully clean, elegant aperitivo that presents a sophisticated, agave-forward evolution of the classic dry martini style. Stirred to a velvety chill with crisp blanco tequila, a bittersweet pour of Americano bianco vermouth, and a delicate, smoky kiss of Del Maguey mezcal, this complex sipper is strained into a coupe glass and finished with an expressed lemon zest twist.

Ingredients:

• 45 ml Patrón Silver blanco tequila

• 15 ml Del Maguey Vida Clásico Mezcal

• 30 ml Americano bianco

Instructions:

• Select and pre-chill a coupe glass.

• Prepare a garnish of coin-sized lemon zest twist.

• Stir all ingredients with ice.

• Strain into an ice-filled glass.

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