Like a suitably complex chemistry experiment, this Margarita-like cocktail has seven ingredients with mezcal adding smoky notes to tequila and a trio of liqueurs balancing lime sourness.

Such a fun Margarita. But with all of that liqueur and syrup we lift the lime juice to 25ml, sometimes to 30ml. It's a sour, yes?
