History:

Short for Monte y Mezcal, the M + M was created in 2015 by Marco Montefiori of Amaro Montenegro and popularised by Robert Krueger at Employee's Only in New York, USA.

So popular is this 50/50 mix of Montenegro and Mezcal served straight up as a shot among bartenders that the drink has gained the nickname Manager's Meeting.

Review:

Deliciously simple, boozy, vaguely Negroni-like, very tasty and perfect for late-night sipping.
