The Oaxaca Old Fashioned

Ingredienser

The Oaxaca Old Fashioned is a modern classic by way of Death & Co in New York City. It’s credited as being the original gateway drug for anyone dipping their toes into trying mezcal during the craft cocktail boom in the 2010’s.

Keeping it accessible yet delicious, I’ve opted for Organic Light Agave In The Raw to be the sweetener. It provides a lovely note of butterscotch to complement for the spices and nutty notes from the aged tequila, while not being overly sweet.
