Welcome to a spirited journey that intertwines the rich heritage of Oaxaca with the vibrant buzz of a classic cocktail. Today, we're introducing a twist on the iconic Espresso Martini, infused with the bold, smoky notes of Mezcalum, a product that prides itself on its zero carbs, zero sugar, zero additives, non-GMO, vegan, and all-natural ethos. Join us as we delve into the history of this beloved drink and unveil what makes our Mezcalum Espresso Martini uniquely unforgettable.

What's the Story Behind the Espresso Martini?

The Espresso Martini is a sumptuous mix of coffee and alcohol, traditionally made with vodka. Born in the late 1980s in London, it's said to have been created by a bartender who was asked to make a drink that could wake up his customer. Little did he know, this blend of espresso and spirits would become a global sensation.

What sets our recipe apart is the introduction of Mezcalum, a product steeped in the heritage of Oaxaca, Mexico. Unlike traditional vodkas, Mezcalum adds a smoky depth, enhancing the cocktail with its rich, earthy flavors.

Why Is the Mezcalum Espresso Martini Unique?

In our rendition of this cocktail, we're swapping out vodka for Mezcalum, our artisanal mezcal produced in the heart of Oaxaca. This switch is not merely a substitution but a transformation. Mezcalum's smoky depth, derived from Espadin and Cuishe agave, elevates the drink, offering a unique twist on the classic. This mezcal's rich backstory, tied to the ancestral wisdom of our Maestro Mezcalero Carlos Méndez Blas, adds a layer of complexity and tradition to every sip.
