Lebowski's Mezcal Milk Punch

This cocktail is a unique take on a White Russian, with a clarified milk punch twist. Inspired by The Big Lebowski, it combines the smoky flavors of mezcal, the richness of coffee liqueur, and the smoothness of añejo tequila. The drink is then clarified, resulting in a velvety, smooth texture and a complex, layered flavor profile. It's a cocktail that's both visually stunning and incredibly tasty.
