GUAVA TOBALITA

A bold and well-balanced cocktail that highlights the essence of Tobalá mezcal. Smoky, herbal notes blend seamlessly with the natural sweetness of guava nectar and the brightness of freshly squeezed lemon juice. A touch of agave syrup smooths the profile, while a salt or Tajín rim adds contrast and depth.
Refreshing, complex, and authentic—an experience that honors mezcal tradition with a modern tropical twist.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz (45 ml) Mezcal La Que Manda Tobalá
  • 1.5 – 2 oz (45-60 ml) of guava nectar

Elaboration

    edge of an “old fashioned” glass or
    glass of mezcal and immerse it in worm
    salt or Tajín.
  • Prepare the mixture: Add the mezcal
    tobalá, the guava nectar, the lemon
    juice and the syrup in a shaker.

    shake vigorously for about 10-15
    seconds until it is very cold.
