Monday Mezcal
Monday Mezcal is a non-alcoholic agave spirit built for people who want the smoke, earthiness, and bite of mezcal in a cocktail without the alcohol. It opens with floral and fruit notes alongside agave nectar, then moves into fresh citrus, apple, roasted agave, pepper, and a distinct smoky finish. The profile is dry rather than sweet, with enough warmth and intensity to hold its own once you start mixing.
Like most non-alcoholic spirits, the texture is lighter than traditional mezcal, so we think Monday is at its best with citrus, bubbles, bitters, or other ingredients that give the drink a little structure. It's also zero sugar, zero calories, and zero carbs.
Why We Love It
Smoke is surprisingly hard to get right in a non-alcoholic spirit. Monday gives you enough roasted agave and smoky character to make a drink feel genuinely mezcal-inspired, but it doesn't overwhelm everything else in the glass. We especially like it when you want something savory, citrusy, or a little spicy rather than sweet.
Try It With
Smoky Paloma: Shake 2 oz Monday Mezcal with 1 oz fresh grapefruit juice and ½ oz fresh lime juice. Pour over ice and top with grapefruit soda or sparkling water. Add a pinch of salt if you like. It's tart, smoky, and very easy to drink.
Especially good with: charred corn and poblano tacos, chile-lime shrimp, grilled chicken with avocado salsa, smoky black bean tostadas, or grilled pineapple with Tajín.

How should I use Monday Mezcal in cocktails?
Monday Mezcal works best in spirit-forward or citrus-driven drinks. Try it in a Smoky Paloma, a non-alcoholic Negroni riff, or any recipe that calls for mezcal. Adding citrus, bubbles, or bitters helps give the drink structure and balance.
What makes Monday Mezcal different from other non-alcoholic spirits?
Monday Mezcal is specifically designed to replicate the smoky, earthy character of agave-based spirits — a flavor profile that's notoriously difficult to achieve without alcohol. The result is a dry, complex spirit alternative that holds up in cocktails rather than tasting like a juice or mixer.
Can I drink Monday Mezcal straight or on the rocks?
You can, though like most non-alcoholic spirits it shines brightest when mixed. The lighter body benefits from a squeeze of citrus or a splash of sparkling water to round out the experience.
