Smokey Faro cocktail

A Lindemix cocktail recipe, crafted with Lindemans Faro-Lambic

Indulge in the Smokey Faro: a bold beer cocktail full of character and complex, complementary flavours. Lindemans Faro-Lambic beer forms the smooth, gently sweet and sour base. Mezcal adds an intense earthiness, while fresh lime juice and a touch of simple syrup provide balance. The result? A powerful contrast of smoky flavour and the candied sugar sweetness of our classic sweetened Faro-Lambic beer. This beer cocktail will surprise and seduce your taste buds with its unexpected combination of flavours.
