Recuerdo Mezcal Blues
Ingredients:
1 ½ oz. Recuerdo Joven Mezcal
1 oz. Blue Curaçao
1/2 oz. lime juice
1 oz. mint syrup (1 cup water, 1 cup sugar, 2-3 bunches fresh mint if you're making it.)
5 fresh raspberries
Tonic water
Directions:
Heat the water, sugar, and mint to a gentle boil. Reduce to a simmer for one to two minutes while stirring. Pull off the heat and allow to sit for 30 to 60 minutes so the mint infuses. Cool and strain the mint.)
Then muddle a couple of raspberries with the Mezcal, lime juice and syrup. Serve with ice, adding the curaçao, and then filling with tonic water. Top with three fresh raspberries to garnish.
