Preparation Instructions

1

Grill the Lemon

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Cut the lemon in half and place it cut-side down on the grill. Grill for about 3-4 minutes until charred and caramelized.

2

Muddle the Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, combine the grilled lemon halves (squeeze out the juice), fresh basil leaves, and organic blue agave. Muddle together gently to release the flavors.

3

Mix the Cocktail

Add Barro de Cobre Mezcal and ice cubes to the shaker. Shake well for about 15-20 seconds.

4

Serve

Strain the mixture into a glass filled with ice. Top with club soda and gently stir. Garnish with a basil leaf or a slice of grilled lemon if desired.
