Hazards of Love
"This cocktail is inspired by the classic Mexican Firing Squad, which itself is built like a tequila collins. My interpretation focuses more on vegetal notes with the addition of muddled, cucumber, absinthe, and a touch of pear brandy to help push the concept while keeping it fresh and slightly dry. Together, the mezcal and green chile vodka add spice and a very green flavor profile along with our house grenadine to keep it close to the original cocktail." —MP
