Avo Mezcalito — Achill’s, Villefranche-sur-Mer
The house green signature: smoky mezcal and silky avocado, a one-way ticket to Oaxaca.
Price : €14.50
Ingredients
- Mezcal — Tequila's cousin: agave hearts roasted in earthen pits, mostly in the Mexican state of Oaxaca. Natural smokiness with earthy, fruity notes.
- Avocado purée — Like mezcal, the avocado comes from Mexico: a natural pairing. A soft green colour and a silky creaminess that tames the mezcal's smoke.
- Triple Sec — A liqueur of sweet and bitter orange peels, born in France in the 19th century. A bright orange note bridging spirit and citrus.
- Lemon juice — Freshly squeezed at the bar. Brought to the Mediterranean along Arab trade routes, the lemon is one of the Riviera's prides, from Menton to the hills of Grasse. Freshness, tension and a lively mouthfeel.
- Agave syrup — The nectar of the agave, the very plant behind tequila and mezcal. A honeyed sweetness that naturally extends the agave notes.
