The Long Goodbye

A beautifully bittersweet, low-ABV-adjacent cocktail. This recipe uses the vegetal, artichoke-laced bitterness of Cynar as its base, paired with a half-ounce of smoky mezcal, fresh lemon juice, and a touch of agave nectar.

Ingredients:

• 1½ oz. Cynar

• ½ oz. mezcal

• 1 oz. fresh orange juice

• ¼ oz. fresh lime juice

• ¼ oz. rich simple syrup (2:1)

• 1 oz. soda water

Instructions:

• Add the soda water to a Collins glass. Shake the remaining ingredients with ice. Double-strain into a Collins glass. Top with ice, then garnish.
