Oaxaca Old Fashioned

A twist on Old Fashioned

Prep time:

A modern classic born in New York in 2007: the structure of an Old Fashioned, but built on agave instead of whiskey. Complex, dry, with a smoky finish that lingers.

Ingredients

  • 45 ml reposado tequila
  • 15 ml joven mezcal
  • 5 ml agave syrup
  • 2 dashes Angostura bitters
  • One large ice cube

Preparation

  1. In a mixing glass, combine the tequila, mezcal, agave syrup and bitters.
  2. Add ice and stir for 25-30 seconds. Stir, never shake: the goal is to chill without aerating.
  3. Strain into the rocks glass over one large ice cube.
  4. Flame the orange peel over the surface and drop it in.
