Naked and Famous

Created by Joaquín Simó while working at Death & Co. in New York, this cocktail has been described as the “bastard love child” of the Last Word and the Paper Plane. Simó’s original version calls for lime juice, but I genuinely think lemon’s brighter tartness gives the drink just a little something extra. 

Ingredients:

• 3/4 oz Lemon Juice(Or lime juice for the original version)
• 3/4 oz Aperol
• 3/4 oz Mezcal
• 3/4 oz Yellow Chartreuse

Build:

1. Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice.
2. Shake well to chill. 
3. Double strain into a chilled coupe, martini, Nick & Nora, or other appropriate glassware. 
4. Garnish with a lemon or lime twist.
5. Enjoy!
