Ingredients:
2 oz Bonded Roots mezcal
0.5 tsp raw sugar (or 0.25 oz simple syrup)
1 dash bitters
Ice
Orange peel (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
Add raw sugar and bitters to a rocks glass and muddle or stir to combine.
Add mezcal and a large ice cube (or fresh ice).
Stir gently to chill and integrate.
Express an orange peel over the glass if using, then drop in or garnish.
Optional (safe “fire pit” touch): Rim the glass lightly with raw sugar and add an extra dash of bitters on top for a warm, toasty aroma. No flame needed.
