Refreshing

Seasonal

Think a classic Brown Derby but ready for summertime, with the addition of a little Orgeat and grenadine for sweetness. A surprise smokiness from the Mezcal and just a hint of the red wine from the added aging process of this Prospect Reserve Whiskey. A salted rim mostly for looks but adds an additional dimension to the drink.
