Make it.

  1. Rim a highball with worm salt and fill with ice.
  2. Add mezcal, guava juice, and lime; stir lightly.
  3. Top with tonic water.

To Serve

Garnish with a lime wheel.

Ritual

Let the bitterness hit first, then the fruit, then the smoke.

Adapted from the existing Don Catrín recipe.

Story

Tonic brings bitterness and lift; guava brings soft tropical sweetness; mezcal brings smoke.

Worm salt frames the drink with a savory edge that keeps it crisp.

A light, refreshing pour that still feels grounded and complex.

Notes & Variations

  • Use pink tonic for extra color and a softer finish.
