A refreshing, nuanced margarita riff from Oakland’s Starline Social Club to chase away the winter doldrums
The drink takes advantage of natural flavor pairings between tart, refreshing grapefruit juice (cut with a bit of lime juice), cinnamon spice, and smoky mezcal that results in a refreshing sipper that takes great advantage of winter citrus
2 oz Mezcal (espadin variety)
1 oz Fresh Grapefruit Juice
.5 oz Fresh Lime Juice .75 oz Cinnamon Syrup (crush 4-5 cinnamon sticks in pan, add 1/2 Cup each granulated sugar and water, stir until sugar dissolves on medium-low heat. Simmer with cinnamon for 5 minutes before straining)
Pinch Sea Salt
Shake with ice and strain into a chilled double rocks glass with a few ice cubes. Garnish with a grapefruit twist
