Highland Picnic Recipe

The smoky, floral, creamy highland picnic from nacho jimenez at ghost donket is a masterclass in recipe balance, exhibiting a split spirit base, a split citrus component, and split sweeteners Tequila and mezcal (jimenez calls for montelobos) make up the base, followed by lime and yuzu (a japanese relative of the lemon with a floral, tart flavor), finished with simple syrup and agave syrup, united and softened by fluffy egg white. Its beautiful to behold and a genuine treat to slowly sip, taking in the delicate scents and flavors.
