10 MezcalCocktails toMake ThisSummer

Mezcal is defined as an agave-based liquor, and while it's best known for its smokiness, there are a ton of varieties out there that range from earthy to fruity to peppery.

GUAVA MEZCALMULE

Sweet, spicy and oh so refreshing. If you want to tame the bite of the ginger beer, add a bit more guava juice, or use ginger ale instead.

SALT & WIND

1

MEZCALITA

Fresh citrus juices cut through the intensity of the mezcal in this refreshing sipper. Finish the drink with a few dashes of orange bitters and a generous Tajín rim.

COOKIE AND KATE

2

SPICY PALOMA

Bitter, acidic grapefruit juice + homemade jalapeño simple syrup = a match made in sour-spicy heaven.

DUDE THAT COOKZ

3

LEMONY-LIME ISLAND MANGO MEZCAL BREEZE

Don't let the combo of silver tequila and mezcal intimidate you. Mango juice sweetens the libation just enough to soften its booziness.

HALF BAKED HARVEST

4

SMOKY WATERMELONLEMON MARGARITA

Take your pick of basil or mint for this summer stunner–both offer the optimal dose of herby flavor.

HALF BAKED HARVEST

5

BLOODY MANGOCOCKTAIL

Love Bloody Marys? If so, this tropical twist on the bev deserves a spot at Sunday Brunch. Substitute the vodka with your favorite mezcal for a hint of smoke.

KAREN WISE/TIKI WITH A TWIST

6

THE BLACK WIDOWSMASH

This blackberry-rosemary libation is destined for your next fall get-together (or a Halloween party). Tequila or mezcal can be used interchangeably here.

HALF BAKED HARVEST

7

CHARRED GRAPEFRUIT & MEZCAL PALOMA SOUR

This elegant drink is so impressive, down to the foamy egg white. Use the open flame of your stove, a broiler or a kitchen torch to char the grapefruit.

THE MODERN PROPER

8

LA CURA

Think mezcal margarita meets the penicillin, a traditional whiskey drink made with ginger, honey and lemon. Make the honey-ginger syrup ahead so you can mix one onn the fly later on.

FEASTING AT HOME

9

MEZCAL APEROLSPRITZ

Complete with sliced blood oranges and strawberries for garnish. Go the extra mile by squeezing your own orange juice (we suggest cara cara oranges for extra sweetness).
