Naked and Famous

Description

The charm of Naked and Famous is in the contrast: familiar flavours, but with enough shape to make it memorable. The sour structure gives the drink its discipline: spirit for weight, citrus for energy and sweetness for shape. Mezcal, aperol, yellow chartreuse and lime juice should feel bright and deliberate, with the tart edge making the flavour pop rather than vanish.

The best version tastes alive, not merely acidic; it should leave a clean finish and make the next sip feel inviting.
