I had Mezcalitas at my hotel in Oaxaca. Now it’s in a tie with my other favorite cocktail, a Manhattan. I know, a lot different. I often drink Bourbon and Manhattans but this Mezcalita was so good. Your recipe worked out well, but, for me, it just missed the mark a little bit. Next time I’m going vary your recipe by cutting the orange juice in half and instead of using just Agave as a sweetener I’ll try half Agave and half orange liquer. And a little more Mezcal, instead of 1 and 1/2 ounces, I’ll try two ounces. A little less juice-y and a little more Mezcal-y.

Followed the recipe with the same ingredients (except orange juice was from a carton) and it turned out unbalanced, simply too much orange juice. Had to add an ounce of agave syrup to balance it out. I would cut the orange juice to 1oz and add 3/4oz of agave syrup. Also would recommend trying jalapeño-infused agave syrup. Thanks for the recipe inspiration though.

Kate–just made this tonight to celebrate our boys getting into the public school close to our house (not a given in CA). No more carseats and driving them to school!!! I stole all their mandarins which we use in school lunches. We just happen to have small lime trees on our patio. Bingo!!! Miraculously all the ingredients came together and it was fabulous. I even had orange bitters. You get bitter, smoky, sweet, spicy, and salty with this drink. It fires on all cylinders. Easy (except for juicing lots of mandarins) and clear instructions. Thanks!
