Description

Hot Honey Mezcal Mule balances smoke, heat and sweetness rather than piling them on top of each other. Mezcal is the main spirit, a little blanco tequila softens its edges and fresh lime cuts through both honey and ginger beer.

Hot honey syrup adds a chilli warmth that arrives before the ginger bite. The finish stays long and sparkling, not syrupy.

Ingredients

  • 40 ml Mezcal
  • 10 ml Blanco tequila
  • 20 ml lime juice
  • 10 ml Hot Honey Syrup
  • Ginger Beer to top
  • 1 piece Lime Wheel (for garnish)
  • Ice

Instructions

  1. Add mezcal, tequila, lime juice and hot honey syrup to a copper mug or highball.
  2. Fill with ice and stir until the syrup is fully dispersed.
  3. Top with ginger beer.
  4. Stir once gently and garnish with lime.
