I was out to dinner last night at a new spot that just opened up. While their rum selection wasn't terrible, their craft cocktails featuring agave spirits was wayyy better. I had also just watched Anders Erikson's video on his original, See No Evil. Plus a lot of you always ask for non-rum based cocktails, so I wanted to create a cocktail that would highlight just the Mezcal.

Editor's Note

Smoky mezcal stands in for rum in this tiki-inspired sour. The Gardenia Mix adds a buttery, spiced counterpoint to the sharp ginger and acid-adjusted pineapple.
