I really like this drink, but it doesn’t need the extra sugar from the agave. In spite of its origins, I prefer to use Bergamatto liqueur rather than Italicus for most mezcals. The olive garnish is brilliant!
This drink is sweet but lovely, much better than I expected (used Capucana Cachaça and Luxardo Aperitivo). I tried with lemon bitters as well, and that helped balance the drink (also tried a lemon twist but the aroma was not as good as with the orange twist)
