Agave Mexican Mule

Description

Agave Mexican Mule is deliberately distinct from the site’s existing Mexican Mule. Reposado tequila brings oak and cooked-agave depth, a small measure of mezcal adds smoke, and fresh lime keeps the drink sharp.

A little agave syrup connects the spirits to spicy ginger beer without making the highball sweet. It is richer than the blanco-tequila version but still long and refreshing.

Ingredients

  • 40 ml Reposado tequila
  • 10 ml Mezcal
  • 20 ml lime juice
  • 7.5 ml Agave syrup
  • Approx. 100 ml Ginger Beer, to top
  • 1 piece Lime Wheel (for garnish)
  • Ice

Instructions

  1. Fill a copper mug with ice.
  2. Add reposado tequila, mezcal, lime juice and agave syrup and stir briefly.
  3. Top with ginger beer.
  4. Stir once gently and garnish with a lime wheel.
