    Combine the Ingredients

    In a shaker, combine the mezcal, agave syrup, fresh lime juice, diced jalapeño, and chopped cilantro. Muddle the ingredients gently to release the flavors.

    Serve the Drink

    Fill a glass with ice and strain the mixture over the ice. For garnish, slice the remaining avocado and add a sprig of cilantro on top. Serve immediately.
