This simple yet flavorful cocktail beautifully blends the smokiness of mezcal with the bright sweetness of Meyer lemon juice.
1 1/2 oz. mezcal
3/4 oz. fresh Meyer lemon juice
1 oz. Cointreau
Tools: shaker, strainer
Glass: cocktail
Garnish: Meyer lemon twist
Combine the mezcal, lemon juice and Cointreau in a shaker. Add ice, shake vigorously, strain into a chilled glass and garnish.
