ABOUT
This cocktail was created by Ivy Mix (@ivymix) for Leyenda (Brooklyn, NY) and I found the recipe in Mix’s book, ""Spirits of Latin America." In this unique twist on a mezcal Negroni, Mix blends two rums and Spanish vermouth to enhance the mezcal base, creating a funky, earthy, and bitter sipper. Cynar adds a nice bitterness, resulting in a smoky sipper with subtle fruit notes. Cheers y’all!
