Just enough smoke to intrigue, never enough to overpower.
The Smoky Margarita walks the line between tradition and rebellion. It respects the classic template — tequila, citrus, sweet — but the mezcal rinse adds a campfire edge that transforms the experience.
The key is restraint. Too much mezcal and you lose the Patron Reposado's oak and vanilla character. A rinse is all you need — just enough smoke to intrigue, never enough to overpower.
