Mezcal Sour
10 minutes
1 serving
EASY
Ingredients
1 Cocktail
2 oz mezcal
¾ oz fresh lime juice
½ oz fresh lemon juice
¾ oz simple syrup (1:1 sugar to water)
1 egg white (or ½ oz aquafaba for vegan option)
2–3 dashes Angostura bitters (for garnish)
Ice
Instructions
Method
Dry shake: Add mezcal, citrus juices, simple syrup, and egg white to a shaker. Shake without ice for 10–15 seconds to emulsify.
Shake with ice: Add ice to the shaker and shake again until chilled, about 15 seconds.
Strain into a chilled coupe glass.
Garnish: Add 2–3 dashes of Angostura bitters on top of the foam. Use a toothpick to drag the drops into a simple pattern if desired.
Notes
Adjust sweetness by adding a touch more or less simple syrup.
For a brighter profile, swap lime juice for all lemon, or vice versa.
Aquafaba creates a similar silky foam without egg.
