Smokey N’ Salted

Complex and sippable with natural flavor and body, our signature flavors are defined by oaky hints of vanilla and warm spice, followed by a velvety smooth finish.

The Smokey N' Salted is the perfect cocktail to shake up on a warm summer day! Batch the homemade Salted Cucumber Syrup ahead of time for a smooth and refreshing drink rounded out with a mezcal kick.

The charm of this cocktail is found in its straightforward blend and vibrant presentation.
