Mezcal Negroni Cocktail
1 serving
5 minutes
The 'Mezcal Negroni' cocktail is a bold interpretation of the classic 'Negroni', infused with smoky notes of mezcal and the warmth of tequila. This drink was born from the quest for new flavors, blending Italian tradition with Mexican spirit. The balance of Campari's bitterness, sweet red vermouth, and the deep, earthy aroma of mezcal makes the cocktail complex and refined. The orange peel garnish adds fresh citrus accents, while a piece of chocolate provides a light bitterness that reveals the richness of flavor layers. Perfect as an aperitif, this cocktail offers a sense of journey between continents, connecting Europe and Latin America in one sip.
