Ingredients

  • 2 oz mezcal
  • 1 oz tamarind concentrate
  • 0.75 oz lime juice
  • 0.5 oz agave syrup
  • Lime wheel for garnish
  • Tajín seasoning for rimming, optional

Instructions

  • If rimming the glass, start by moistening the edge of a rocks glass with a lime wedge and dipping it into Tajín seasoning. Set aside.
  • In a cocktail shaker, combine mezcal, tamarind concentrate, lime juice, and agave syrup.
  • Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until well-chilled.
  • Strain the mixture into the prepared rocks glass filled with fresh ice.
  • Garnish with a lime wheel on the rim of the glass and serve immediately.

Notes

Pro Tips
  • For a spicier flavor, add a pinch of Tajín directly into the shaker before mixing.
  • Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less agave syrup to your taste.
  • Use freshly squeezed lime juice for a brighter, more refreshing flavor.
