Tequila-Mezcal blend Margarita scaled for the Pill program. The most-requested classic in cocktail bars; the Pill version is built for sharing across a party of 4-6.

Pill vessel spec (5 servings):

  • 8 oz Blanco tequila
  • 2 oz Mezcal (joven)
  • 3.75 oz Lime juice (fresh)
  • 2.5 oz Cointreau
  • 1 oz Agave syrup (1:1 with water)

Service note: Each pour into a rocks glass with a half-rim of Tajín. Lime wheel garnish. The mezcal cuts the sweetness and adds smoke depth.

Costing: ~$16 per Pill yield, $150 menu price = 89% margin.
