Eyes on the Table

1 oz Mezcal
1 oz Byrrh
1⁄2 oz Aperol
1 twst Orange peel (As garnish.)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a single old fashioned glass, and garnish with an orange twist.

History

When I started working at River Bar in March 2018, I was inspired by Byrrh Quinquina being on the bar. I then matched it with three ingredients that I have seen it work well with: mezcal, elderflower, and Aperol. For a name, I later dubbed this one Eyes on the Table after a work by Spanish born surrealist artist Remedios Varo.

1 oz Amère Sauvage
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
1⁄4 oz Braulio

Notes

Suze is probably fine to swap for the Amère Sauvage, but add a little something like orange bitters to make up for it.
