BASIL MEZCAL SOUR COCKTAIL

RECIPES
TIME TO MAKE:

8 MIN

The smooth taste of a Basil Mezcal Sour cocktail is one of the most enjoyable sips you can take. The tangy-sweet layers of citrus are met with a delicate hint of smoke, for a refreshing cocktail that’s perfect for summer nights. 

The herbaceous basil, sour lime juice and sugar go so well together, and that’s before you introduce the tantalizingly smoky flavour of the Mezcal. Complete with some finely cut fatalii pepper for a subtle heat to finish.

  • 1 ½ oz mezcal
  • 1/2 oz Cointreau

  • Ice
  • Pinch of fire hybrid pepper
  • Pinch of Himalayan salt

MADE WITH

SPICY BUSH BASIL
FIRE HYBRID PEPPER
