Looking for more uses for the Martini Rosato I have, seems to work nicely in this aperitivo! I thought with the Suze it might be 'écoeurant' but it is nice and refreshing. A little bitterness and a lighter dose of that smoke and petrol (I enjoy it haha yes sniffing around gas pumps) funkiness of Del Maguey Vida. Might be the particular Mezcal I used (Amores).
Will try again with the champagne top up :)
