second surfin' bird

1 1/2 oz Reposado Tequila (Cimarron)
1/2 oz Mezcal (Fidencio)
1/4 oz Campari
1/4 oz Ruby Port (Sandeman Tawny)
3/4 oz Pineapple Juice
3/4 oz Lime Juice
1/2 oz Passion Fruit Syrup
1/4 oz Simple Syrup

Blend with 12 oz crushed ice for 3 seconds or whip shake with crushed ice. Pour into a Tiki mug, top with crushed ice, and garnish with tropical flair.
To continue on with the Tiki the Snow Away month on Instagram, I decided upon the Second Surfin' Bird published in the most recent issue of Imbibe Magazine. This Jungle Bird riff was crafted by Paul McGee and Shelby Allison at Chicago's Lost Lake, and its combination reminded me of their eponymous Lost Lake drink but with agave spirits and ruby port instead of rum and Maraschino. Once prepared, the Second Surfin' Bird called out to the nose with vegetal agave, tropical, and smoke aromas. Next, lime and passion fruit on the sip flapped its way to a smoky agave, pineapple, and bitter orange swallow with a passion fruit finish. Overall, the end result was perhaps not that dissimilar from a Commando Bird made with mezcal and tequila.
