“For this collaboration, I decided to embrace the orange and make it the focal point of this cocktail. Vitamin C is crucial in the wintertime to keep from getting sick, so I wanted to highlight orange in this cocktail. When I was a kid, I didn’t get sick often and my love for oranges is why. In elementary school I was known as the orange king because I would trade food for orange slices, or everyone would just give me their oranges at lunch. So, I went all orange for this Margarita riff. I combined the cool smooth flavor of the orange and paired it with the warmth of mezcal in a cocktail that tastes and feels like sunshine in the Highlands of Oaxaca, in the cold of winter.” — Nicholas Reed

3/4 oz clarified orange juice
