History

Adapted from a recipe created in 2014 at El Nivel in Covent Garden, London, England. The original recipe calls for house-made roasted pineapple syrup, and Anton Persson, a fellow Discerning Drinker, has posted a roasted pineapple syrup recipe along with his "approximation" of the Mezcal Fix recipe."

Review

This pineapple mezcal sour with a touch of bittersweet carciofo (artichoke) amari is a a riff on Thad Vogler's Single Village Fix.

Lacking any pineapple syrup, we added 7.5 ml of agave nectar keeping everything else the same. Delightful!
