COCKTAIL RECIPE
Illegal
Illegal - A smoky, tropical and balanced cocktail made with mezcal, lime juice, agave syrup and bitters. It stands out with its exotic flavor.
The Illegal cocktail is a tropical drink created using Mezcal in the modern cocktail scene. The name refers to the historical prohibitions on mezcal production in Mexico and the feeling of "contraband" associated with the American Prohibition era. The smoky aroma of mezcal and the sour-sweet balance combined with lime make for a drink that is both exotic and sophisticated. This cocktail has been especially popularized by modern bars in the city since the 2010s, popularizing the use of mezcal in cocktails. Illegal is an experience that symbolizes the adventurous and free spirit, not only through the drink but also through the story.
“Sometimes in life it is important not to break the rules but to see the limits”
