Hot Buttered Mezcal Cocktail Set: Pierde Almas La Puritita Verdá Mezcal + Liber & Co Demerara Gum Syrup + Angostura Bitters 4 oz

About Hot Buttered Mezcal Cocktail Set

Everyone's heard of hot buttered rum, but have you thought about taking mezcal in the same direction?

What do you say to bringing that unforgettable smoky note and that delicious agave taste to cold weather cocktails?

Here's the cocktail for you. Rich Demerara sugar in a premium syrup from Liber & Co balances out the classic (and beloved) burn from mezcal in this hot drink. The strained spice base keeps it smooth and buttery.

This is based on a recipe from Dove's Luncheonette in Chicago, and comes to us courtesy of Liber & Co.

• (1) 750 ml bottle of Pierde Almas La Puritita Verdá Mezcal
