Review:
Initially strong and punchy, but as the name suggests, as the ice melts dilution makes this drink better and better.
History:
Created circa 2007 by Jan Warren at 10 Downing in Manhattan, New York City but not popularised until 2012 when he was behind the stick at Dutch Kills, Long Island City. Jan's original recipe calls for Fidencio blanco mezcal.
