Tia Mia

1 oz Rum, Appleton Reserve
1 oz Mezcal, Del Maguey Vida
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 oz Orgeat
1⁄2 oz Curaçao (Dry)
1 t Sugar
Instructions

Shake and strain over crushed ice. Garnish with a lime wheel, mint, and an orchid.

Notes

This works fine made with 1:1 sugar syrup rather than ordinary sugar and you don't have to worry about it dissolving (or rather, not).

  • Corpse Reviver variant
  • Add more Cocchi Americano to balance lime
  • Nice easy-drinking sour. Nonino provides enough sweetness to balance everythng else. Almost tastes grapefruity.

  • Agree that Bonal is a bit muted. I like it so may tweak with another .25 next time. Used Muse Verte as rinse.
  • Good. Made with Rittenhouse. The lemon predominated. Perhaps worth trying some rebalancing to steer it further away from a whiskey sour. — ★★★★

Canephoros commented on 10/12/2015:

Although I forgot the absinthe rinse, I really enjoyed this drink. I used Senior's white Curacao, which I like, and Old Overholt Rye, which I don't like as much as Bulleit's.  But I would say that this drink is my favorite of the 4 or 5 similar recipes I tried out over the weekend (Fernetaboutit, Corpse Defiler 666, Bitter Apricot, Death is not the End).

Stewart commented on 11/30/2016:

The lemon flavor really "pops" without being overly sour.  I feel like the Bonal gets a little lost.

 

Biff Malibu commented on 12/15/2022:

Agree with going skosh on the lemon juice: at the beginning, all flavors were present, but as the drink progressed, lemon dominated.

  • Made it with Crude Orange and Fig bitters, a splash of orange blossom water, and not and much simple syrup and called for. U see Citadelle gin. Feedback from my taste tester was it could use something more fruit forward but otherwise good. Good base you experiment from. — ★★★★
