Viva Mezcal: Mixing, Sipping, and Other Adventures with Mexico's Original Handcrafted Spirit

Artisanal Mezcal follows a delicate underground baking process that has existed for hundreds of years, but it is only now that itâ€™s experiencing a Renaissance in craft cocktail bars and homes around the country.

Made from agave, but so much more than tequila, Mezcalâ€™s smoky flavor and smooth finishâ€”as well as its artisanal, farm-to-table backgroundâ€”has made it the new â€œspirit du jour.â€ This book contains 50 cocktail recipes you can make at home with delicious, versatile out-of-this world Mezcal, containing information about how this small-batch liquor is made by Oaxacan families, and will include tasting notes on almost every brand available in the US.
