  • I find that this comes too close to a margarita - the orange juice essentially plays the role of triple sec, and the sheer volume means the smoke of the mezcal is lost unless you use a particularly assertive mezcal. An example of a cocktail with too many touches for too little benefit, in my view. — ★★★
