Mosquito

Mosquito revisits a template Ross explored with his iconic Paper Plane 10 years prior. It features four ingredients in equal measure, creating a harmony of smoky, sweet, spicy, sour and bitter elements.

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 ounce mezcal

  • 3/4 ounce lemon juice

  • 3/4 ounce sweetened ginger juice (see Editor’s Note)

  • 3/4 ounce Campari

Instructions:

  • Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice and shake until chilled.

  • Strain into a chilled coupe.

  • Garnish with candied ginger.
