    Been playing with Sotol recently so your creation with mezcal will definitely be on the try list.

    Loving these drinks! Phil Ward (Death & Co) who’s good friend is Garret Richardson did our full bar menu at Ebanos Crossing based on Tiki Mezcal cocktails years ago - it was truly original

    Both cocktails sound delicious and with one called a Pineapple Cannon you know I’m definitely going to try it! I did make the dagger clone rum for the 1-2 SC Planters Punch as well as your gardenia mix, and they are delicious AF!! Cheers 🥂 🍹and Mahalo!

    I love the deep dive you did on mezcal. This spirit is amazing and you’ve done a great job here incorporating it into tiki

    I love anytime I can pair some Mexican flavors into tiki drinks, be it fruits or spirits. I'll have to give these a try!

    One of my local tiki bars has a drink with mezcal but the smokiness in that drink is overpowering. Your Pineapple Cannon looks great and has me thinking twice about having mezcal in a tiki drink.

      If done right, it’s def great. But you can also swing the other direction, go overboard with the mezcal, or use the wrong one, and completely ruin a cocktail.

      Some Mezcals aren’t as smoky as others. I love the smokiness so I tend to use El Silencio Espadín or Del Maguey Vida. Montelobos Joven is a very mellow mezcal with sublet hints of smokiness. You just have to find a Mezcal for your palate. Whatever you do, stay away from 400 Conejos. It’s made by Jose Cuervo so that should tell you all you need to know.
