I haven’t had time or funds to go to the liquor store, out of the staples, so am left with a very odd assortment of ingredients. This recipe made very good use of some things I had on hand. The cinnamon doesn’t add much flavor, it’s more of a sensation - very nice!

1 1/2 oz Mezcal Joven

1/2 oz rhubarb liqueur

2/3 oz grapefruit juice

1/3 oz cinnamon bark syrup

3/4 oz lime juice

1 dash aromatic bitters

1 twist grapefruit peel

Shake together first 6 ingredients, strain into chilled coupe, express grapefruit peel over drink.

      Someone gave it to me as a gift. Also have 2 bottles of Nixta acquired the same way. So was pretty happy to find the drink that used it like this, grapefruit and mezcal is so good, and the oddball addition of rhubarb and cinnamon works beautifully, it is a cohesive flavor.

        Sounds good. I like grapefruit cocktails. The combination is definitely not something you see everyday.
