ingredients
Clementine Mezcal Margarita
- 4 oz mezcal
- 1 oz lemon juice
- 4 oz fresh clementine juice
- 1 oz rosemary simple syrup
- 4 oz club soda
- Sugar for the rim
- Rosemary sprigs for garnish
Brûléed Clementine Slices
- 3 tsp granulated sugar
- 2 clementine slices
instructions
- Rim two cocktail glasses with sugar. Set aside.
- To make the cocktail, add mezcal, lemon juice, clementine juice, and simple syrup to a shaker filled with ice. Shake well.
- Fill cocktail glasses with ice and strain cocktail into both glasses, dividing evenly.
- Top with club soda and give a final stir.
- To make the brûléed clementine slices, top each with 1 1/2 tsp sugar. Using a kitchen torch, slowly go back and forth over the slices to melt and brown the sugar. Let set for about 1 minute to let the melted sugar harden.
- Garnish cocktails with a brûléed clementine slice each and rosemary sprigs. Serve immediately.
