Mezcal Negroni Recipe

"The Mezcal Negroni is a smooth tipple to either start or round out your evening. An easy twist on the much loved Caffe Casoni 1919 Italian classic, the mezcal negroni adds a delightful grassy, peppery note which bounces off the bitter Campari in delicious merriment. Equal measures is key for the balance, and to add a classy touch, look to use a block of ice in your rocks glass to keep this decadent classic from over-diluting."
