Mescal por mi Amante, translates from Spanish to English as Mescal for my Lover. What a perfect name for this sexy drink at Wo Hing General Store in the Mission District of San Francisco. This strawberry infused mezcal, lemon, egg whites, agave nectar, and angostura bitters concoction makes you want to slip into something more comfortable with it's luscious smoky heavenly flavor.
If you've been reading the blog, I've been working for over a year on "breaking out of my cocktail comfort zone" as prescribed in, http://eatocracy.cnn.com/2012/01/02/55-break-your-cocktail-comfort-zone. Now that mescal and egg whites are checked off the list with this drink, the last thing is a rye cocktail...Any suggestions? If not, I may end up back at Wo Hing for the Laughing Water cocktail.

So that you are always left wondering, Wo Hing General store changes up your cocktail experience for the same drinks by serving them in different glasses. The first time I had the Mescal por mi Amante, it was served in this stunning glass below. Some of their glassware is definitely a conversation starter. I love the gold with the turquoise.
