The Mezcaletti is a modern cocktail created in 2015 by Richard Boccato at Dutch Kills in New York City. With just three ingredients—mezcal, Meletti Amaro, and orange bitters—it delivers a deceptively complex and smoky flavor.
Add mezcal, amaro, and bitters to a mixing glass.
Fill mixing glass with cubed ice.
Using a bar spoon, stir for 30-45 seconds until well-chilled and slightly diluted.
Fill a lowball glass with fresh cubed ice.
Using a julep strainer, strain into lowball glass.
Garnish with lemon twist.
