DEL MAGUEY VIDA SINGLE VILLAGE MEZCAL for The Pink Ghost Cocktail

Whoever said you can't beat fire with fire had it wrong. Because you can beat the heat with Del Maguey Vida Mezcal, which is naturally fermented and twice distilled in wood-fired copper stills to give it notes of roast agave and tropical fruit, with a smooth finish.

If sipping smooth mezcal isn't your vibe, we suggest adding it to a chilled zesty cocktail and kicking back with friends to enjoy.

The "Pink Ghost" is the perfect libation to sip on during the summer. Using Del Maguey Vida, the cocktail is infused with seasonal flavors like strawberries, fresh citrus, and mint and unique ingredients such as coconut milk and honey syrup. See below for the full recipe!
