Perfect for a party, this large-batch cocktail promises not just a drink but an experience, capturing the essence of a stunning sunset in every glass. Ingredients: - 1 liter mezcal - 2 liters orange juice, freshly squeezed preferred for the best flavor - 1/2 cup lime juice, freshly squeezed - 1/4 cup agave nectar (adjust to taste) - 2 oranges, sliced into thin rounds for garnish - 1 lime, sliced into thin rounds for garnish - A handful of mint leaves for garnish - 2 cups sparkling water or club soda for a fizzy touch (optional) - Ice cubes Instructions: 1. In a large pitcher or punch bowl, combine the mezcal, orange juice, lime juice, and agave nectar. Stir well to ensure the agave nectar is thoroughly dissolved. 2. Taste and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding more agave nectar. 3. Refrigerate the mixture until it's chilled, ideally for at least 1 hour. 4. Just before serving, add the sparkling water or club soda to the mezcal mixture if you're opting for a fizzy touch. Gently stir to combine. 5. Add a generous amount of ice cubes to the pitcher or bowl to keep the drink cool. 6. Garnish with the sliced oranges, lime rounds, and mint leaves. 7. Serve in highball glasses, ensuring each glass gets a bit of the garnishes. The Sunset Serenade is a perfect concoction for those looking to introduce a refreshing yet complex cocktail to their party menu. The mezcal's smokiness perfectly complements the sweetness and tanginess of the orange and lime juices, while the agave nectar rounds out the drink with a hint of sweetness. The optional addition of sparkling water introduces a lively fizz that makes each sip even more enjoyable. Enjoy responsibly as you watch the sun dip below the horizon.
