We serve this straight up in a Coupe glass (to our minds prettier and we're not keen on the dilution that crushed ice imparts, even though it's fun on a warm Summer afternoon). Perhaps among the simplest of the Tiki cocktails, and virtuous for it.
Heavily improvised with tequila and cachaca and lemon juice instead of the official method. Oh and also served straight up rather than on the rocks due to an ice crisis. Still jolly nice
Very nice and refreshing cocktail. We are not huge fans of Mezcal, but love Rhum Agricole. Felt the Mezcal overshadowed, a bit, the cocktail. The Rhum Agricole was a little lost.
This is an unexpected find.
I wanted to use up some fresh pineapple juice, and I was in the mood for mezcal -- and now I can't get the Doors out of my head. The mezcal and Rhum Clement Blanc seemed like strange bedfellows, but the other ingredients work to bring these two together beautifully. The mezcal is present, but it does not overpower. The grassy agricole is perfect -- a molasses-based rum might have over-sweetened things. And the little plastic monkey...well, need I say more?
