Smoky Passion Mezcalita

A seductive blend of smoky mezcal, tart passionfruit, and a lingering habanero heat.

10 min prep · 60 min freeze 6 servings medium

This isn't your average margarita. We swap tequila for smoky Mezcal and pair it with the exotic acidity of passionfruit. A touch of habanero-infused honey provides a balanced heat that cuts through the icy texture, creating a complex, viral-worthy cocktail that is perfectly calibrated for the Ninja Slushi.
