July Drinks!

Celestial Nectar

Ingredients:

- 1 oz Sombra Mezcal

- 1/2 oz grapefruit soda (Fever-Tree)

- Splash of pineapple juice

 Inspiration: Inspired by the complex, layered structure of Joe Richey's "Galactic Spiral Warrior," this drink combines smoky mezcal with the tangy freshness of grapefruit soda and a hint of pineapple, echoing the intricate forms and celestial themes of the sculpture. The influence of mathematicians, engineers, artists, architects, and warriors inspire the smokey selection of an ancestral spirit - mezcal.
