Method
Cocktail
Prepare and chill glass
If desired, place a rocks glass or coupe in the freezer for a few minutes or fill it with ice water to chill while you build the cocktail.
Measure and combine
Add 2 oz mezcal, 0.5 oz Yellow Chartreuse, 0.5 oz Aperol, and 0.75 oz fresh lime juice to a cocktail shaker. If you prefer a slightly sweeter, less tart drink, add 0.25 oz simple syrup.
Add ice and shake
Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup) and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is very cold and slightly frosted. This both chills and dilutes the drink to balance flavors.
Prepare serving glass
Discard ice water from the chilled glass if used. Add 2–3 large ice cubes to a rocks glass (or leave the coupe empty for a spirit-forward serving).
Strain and garnish
Double-strain the cocktail into the prepared glass over the serving ice (or neat into the chilled coupe) using a Hawthorne and fine mesh strainer to catch any small ice shards. Express a lime peel over the top or float a lime wheel as garnish.
Serve
Serve immediately. Recommend tasting and adjusting: if the drink is too bright/tart, add 0.25 oz simple syrup next time; if too sweet, reduce syrup or Aperol slightly.
