3/4 oz Mezcal (Mezcal Union)
1/2 oz Punt e Mes
1/2 oz Cynar
1/2 oz Apricot Liqueur (Rothman & Winter)
Stir with ice and strain into an old fashioned glass.
Two Thursday ago, I decided to tinker and continue on with my rhum agricole-mezcal stirred drinks that started with Up Jumped the Devil and followed by Stranger than Kindness. This time I went with the Cynar-apricot duo that I learned to appreciate in the One One Thousand, and I utilized Punt e Mes to bolster the fruity and bitter notes. For a name, I kept with the Nick Cave song titles concept with Henry's Dream.
