Cobra clutch

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz. tequila
  • 0.5 oz. mezcal
  • 0.5 oz. lime juice
  • 0.5 oz. demerara or cane syrup
  • 1 oz. pineapple juice
  • Rinse absinthe

Instructions

Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker with crushed ice. Briefly shake to incorporate the ingredients, then pour into a large rocks glass. Top with more crushed ice, and garnish with a mint sprig.

Verdict

Refreshing and light. All the components come through, without anything dominating. The absinthe spritz on top is a fitting touch. The crushed ice might make it a bit too watered down. Consider going with ice cubes instead.

Score
