Mezcal, with its smoky roots in Oaxaca, Mexico, is the soul of Graveyard Fog. Mixed with elderflower and lime, it balances earthy smoke with floral brightness. The fog effect recalls haunted graveyards, tied to traditions of spirits both liquid and ghostly returning during Día de los Muertos and Halloween.

• 45ml mezcal
• 20ml elderflower liqueur
• 20ml lime juice
• 10ml agave syrup
• Smoked salt

Prepare a rocks glass by rimming it with smoked salt.

Fill a cocktail shaker with mezcal, elderflower liqueur, lime juice, and agave syrup.

Add ice and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until well chilled.

Strain into the prepared glass over a large, clear ice cube.

Garnish with a lime wheel on the rim.

Optional: Use a smoking gun to infuse smoke into the glass for an eerie effect.
