smoke show

2 oz Mezcal (Fidencio)
1/4 oz Cynar
1/4 oz Green Chartreuse
1/2 oz Lemon Juice
1/2 oz Simple Syrup
1 Egg White

Shake one round without ice and one round with ice, strain into a cocktail coupe, and garnish with freshly grated cinnamon.Two Thursdays ago, I spotted an intriguing recipe on Liquor.com called the Smoke Show. The recipe was crafted by Liz Martinez at the Purple Pig in Chicago; its Green Chartreuse, Cynar, and egg white components reminded me of Two from L.A. except that this was more of a Mezcal Sour than a liqueur-driven number. Once prepared, the Smoke Show summoned a cinnamon, smoke, and vegetal aroma. Next, a creamy lemon sip wafted into smoky mezcal and herbal flavors on the swallow.
