Truth or Consequences, NM

A smoky Manhattan riff that was an early days classic at Benjamin Cooper in SF The smoke notes from the mezcal pair very nicely with the rhubarb flavor in the Zucca while the mezcal's subtle roasted agave/tropical flavors mesh well with the lighter, slightly herbal sweetness from the Cardamaro and the oil from the lemon twist brightens things up 2 oz mezcal .5 oz Cardamaro .25 oz Zucca (rhubarb-based Amaro) Stir with ice, strain into a chilled coupe. Garnish with a lemon twist #FridayFavs
