Naked & Famous

A modern classic by Joaquín Simó at Death & Co NYC, the Naked & Famous is the love child of the Last Word and the Paper Plane. Equal parts mezcal, Aperol, Yellow Chartreuse, and lime, this bold riff is smoky, herbal, citrusy, and perfectly balanced.
If you're a mezcal or Chartreuse fan, this one belongs on your short list.

Ingredients

  • 0.75 oz Mezcal
  • 0.75 oz Aperol
  • 0.75 oz Yellow Chartreuse
  • 0.75 oz Fresh Lime Juice

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice.
  • Shake until well chilled.
  • Fine strain into a chilled coupe glass.
  • Garnish with a lime peel twist.

Notes

An easy-to-love equal-parts cocktail with deep roots in modern cocktail culture. Use a bold mezcal to highlight the smoky note, or tweak the lime for sharper citrus contrast.
Simple, striking, and unforgettable — the Naked & Famous lives up to its name.
