Tequila/Mezcal Cocktails

Both are Mexican agave spirits, and tequila is a narrower category within the broader mezcal family. Tequila uses only Blue Weber agave, steamed before distilling for a clean, agave-forward taste. Mezcal draws on dozens of agave varieties, traditionally pit-roasted over hot stones, which is where its signature smoke comes from. Cocktails from this family run citrus-forward and spicy, smokier where mezcal leads.
