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.
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.
How to Drink Monday Mezcal
Use it in a Margarita or Paloma, or pour it over ice with a squeeze of lime and a splash of sparkling water. An orange slice with a pinch of salt also makes a simple way to taste its smoky side.
Cheeky & Dry Signature Serve — Smoke & Mirrors Paloma: Combine 2 oz Monday Mezcal, 1 oz fresh grapefruit juice, ½ oz fresh lime juice, ¼ oz agave syrup and 2 dashes All The Bitter Orange Cardamom Bitters. Shake briefly with ice, strain over fresh ice in a glass with a half rim of salt, and top with 2 oz sparkling water. Garnish with a grapefruit wedge. The bitters give the grapefruit a little edge, leaving the smoke and roasted agave to linger.
Especially good with: charred corn and poblano tacos, tacos and Mexican-inspired dishes; chile-lime shrimp, seafood; grilled chicken with avocado salsa, poultry; smoky black bean tostadas, vegetarian and bean-based dishes; or grilled pineapple with Tajín, fruit and lightly sweet desserts.
