  • Worked really well as a boozy smoky alternative to a radler/shandy. Sparing use of beer makes the flavors really shine, but adding more beer makes it go down faster.

  • A bitter margarita riff
  • Might be nice as a spritz with a sparkling white
  • Zomg bitter. I upped the orange liqueur to 1/2oz and it was still bitter. Another 1/2oz simple was slightly too much - 1/4oz next time. A different mezcal will change that.
  • Really nice. Very bitter tho. And I like bitter. Needs some sweets. Next time up the Cointreau.
  • Love the bitterness from the Campari, the sharpness of the lime and the smokiness of the mezcal. Used Bauchant orange liquor instead of the triple sec; it's smoother.
  • Too bitter for me. Maybe increase Cointreau to 1/2 ounce or sub for 1/2 ounce benedictine.

The Whimsey

1 1⁄2 oz Gin, Tanqueray Malacca
3⁄4 oz Elderflower liqueur
1⁄2 oz Campari
1⁄2 oz Lime cordial, Rose's
1⁄2 oz Orange flower water
2 ds Mint Bitters
3 wdg Lime
Instructions

Muddle the 3 lime wedges in a shaker. Then add all ingredients, then add lots of ice, then shake vigorously. Then pour everything into a large frozen glass.

Notes

The muddle'ing idea is fundamental to a Caipirinha and adds some extra lime tartness in concert & contrast with the Campari.

History

With so many choices resting on the bar, I chose these ingredients as possibilities for something whimsically delicious.
