Yesterday we discussed a law before the Mexican congress that could affect farmers and distillers of artisanal tequila and mescal, as well as the bottles you can find on the shelf. Today, Rancho Pinot bartender Travis Nass shares with us a recipe that makes use of just such an endangered mescal. Make it while you’re still able.

¼ oz. Hum botanical spirit
Agave nectar
