Mezcal Martini

A clean, smoky riff on the classic martini. ADS Espadín mezcal brings a subtle vegetal depth, balanced by the dry snap of ATXA Dry Vermouth and a whisper of Cocchi Americano. A touch of olive brine adds salinity and texture, finishing with a smooth, savory elegance.

NB: This cocktail was originally tailored for the exclusive batch of Agua del Sol Espadín for Güero #1 Tortas.

Recipe:

Preparation
Combine mezcal, dry vermouth, blanc vermouth, and olive brine in a mixing glass filled with ice.

2 oz Agua del Sol Espadín mezcal
3/8 oz dry vermouth (ATXA dry recommended)
