Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling your serving glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, add 2 oz of mezcal, 1 tsp of agave nectar, and 3 dashes of orange bitters.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the mixing glass with ice cubes (about 1 cup) to chill the mixture thoroughly.

  4. 4

    Stir

    Stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled and combined.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Glass

    Empty the ice water from your chilled glass and strain the cocktail mixture into the glass.

  6. 6

    Garnish the Drink

    Twist a strip of orange peel over the drink to release its oils, then drop the peel into the glass as a garnish.
