Sandy The Showgirl
Tequila-based, with complex mezcal smokiness, rich maraschino cherry and floral lavender bitters. It's a cocktail that likes dilution so perhaps consider...

After some experimentation I reduced the agave syrup from 1 tsp to 1/4 tsp. Great cocktail!

Pale male singer-songwriters may record a thousand interchangeable odes to self pity about the woman they thought they owned but didn't; but this cocktail is uniquely wonderful. The only change I've made to it is even less agave syrup, which is so sweet it can step on the toes of the lovely agave spirits and completely obscure the Maraschino. Really just a squirt, because 5ml is too much.

Sad that this didn't make the cut for the 15th Edition of Difford's Guide, but it'll always remain firmly on my list of favourites here, and has once again proved to be an instant hit with friends. Campaign to have Sandy proudly reinstated in the 16th Edition starts here, my friends! :-)

Consider your campaign successful. I've added to my growing list of new cocktails for the 16th edition. Many thanks.
