About
M&M, but make it an espresso martini. Mezcal and Amaro Montenegro have long been a bartender-favorite pairing. The smoke from the mezcal balances Montenegro’s bittersweet orange and spice perfectly. I leaned into an uneven split here so the mezcal didn’t get lost. Agave spirits ground espresso beautifully, and Montenegro’s orange notes build on a citrus and coffee pairing that has always worked.Cheers y'all!
