Naked & Famous
Salmon pink in colour. Mezcal adds earthy smoky complexity to this bittersweet, citrusy fresh, aperitivo Last Word riff. And indeed, getting naked can...

10/10. Superb summer supper.

Very minor point, but the artist that provided the inspiration for the name is Tricky, not Tricky Kid. Going to make this cocktail tonight, but probably won't end up naked and famous myself.

Thanks for spotting this Richard...now fixed. Hope you enjoyed the cocktail!

Having side by side with Division Bell really shows how the chartreuse bashes down the mezcal, much less smokiness to this. The chartreuse feels a bit out of place, rapidly punches you in the middle of your palate and then just leaves a licorice aftertaste. Prefer the Division Bell.

Made again yesterday with Gracias a Dios mezcal, Meunier Altitude Genepy, lemon juice, and Buiese Lusor instead of Aperol. Added some simple syrup to rebalance, since both the Meunier and Lusor are drier than their counterparts. Overall a successful modification. The Lusor adds more bitterness and complexity than Aperol, and can stand up to the mezcal.

always a bit worrying when a cocktail looks simple - but this one is delicious!

Not having any Yellow I made this with Green Chartereuse. Also ran out of Mezcal halfway so used bacanora tequila as it is quite smokey. Very tasty! Thinking of calling Naked and Infamous!

Il cocktail è molto fresco ed equilibrato, aggiungerei un top di sciroppo di agave, nel caso i lime utilizzati siano troppo aspri.

Would Suze work - any one tried it?
