Mezcal’s signature smoky flavor brings a depth of taste that even tequila can’t provide. But what exactly mixes with mezcal? This agave spirit does well with citrus flavors, simple syrup and mint, which complement the sweetness of agave nectar with ease.

Some mezcal drinkers even prefer to mix it with beer; the right brew can heighten the brighter, fruitier notes in mezcal. Orange liqueur, orange peel and ginger beer are just a few common ingredients mezcal drinkers add to their glass.

In search of a refreshing mezcal drink to make with our artisanal spirits? Here are some mezcal drink recipes to consider, made by other people who love La Luna Mezcal.
