Mezcal Week Is Here! Where To Go And What To Drink…
Mezcal, it might not have the same profile as Tequila, but boy should it have! The Mexican drink, a smokier version of its more glamorous sister, is also agave based and it’s nevertheless taking London by storm. So much so that they’ve now dedicated an entire week to the drink. So grab a sombrero, we’re off to celebrate.
The Stafford London
The American Bar at The Stafford London, St James’s may be called ‘American’ but rather than building a wall they’re embracing Mexican culture in their new cocktail menu in the form of The Moriarty. The cocktail, celebrating Sherlock Holmes’ nemesis who first tried to kill Holmes in the heart of St James’s clubland – which is exactly where The Stafford is. The cocktail includes Vida mezcal with Don Julio tequila, Solerno blood orange, grapefruit, agave and lime.
Where: 16-18 St James's Place, Mayfair, London, SW1A 1NJ, United Kingdom
