Garnish:
Grapefruit juice & sea salt rim
How to make:
STIR all ingredients with ice and strain into ice-filled glass (preferably over a chunk of block ice).
1 1/2 fl oz | Del Maguey Vida Clásico mezcal |
3/4 fl oz | Rosso/rouge (sweet) vermouth |
1/2 fl oz | Liquore Strega |
4 drop | Bob's Grapefruit Bitters |

Review:
Mezcal provides the firepower, tamed by sweet vermouth and rich herbal liqueur. A great late-night sipper.
History:
Adapted from a recipe created in 2019 by Erick Castro at Polite Provisions, San Diego, USA. Erick's original recipe calls for a "grasshopper salt rim" made by blending ½ cup sea salt and 2 spoons dehydrated grasshoppers.
