1⁄2 oz Water (Very cold)

1 twst Lemon peel (as garnish)
Instructions

Build in chilled mixing glass. Stir to combine, and strain into chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a wide strip of lemon peel.

Notes

This may seem like a lot of bitters to dash in, but they help pick up what you lose by swapping crema de mezcal in for the Amer Picon.

History

Created for my youngest brother’s wedding, this recipe combines his love of whiskey, mezcal and Manhattans in a riff on a riff, by way of the Creole cocktail.
