  • A Mexican Sazerac.
  • I rinsed rather than misted with the chartreuse, and that proved too strong. Somehow I get "fruity" flavors alongside the expected herbal notes. — ★★★

Comments

I could read 1/2 oz 'agave syrup 1:1 with water' as either a half or a quater oz of each. Tasting the drink, I think it's supposed to be 1/2 oz total - in other words, 1/4 of each. Pleasant drink, though.
