Method

How to make Maggie Smith

Follow the 6 reviewed catalog steps in order.

  1. 01

    Chill a coupe thoroughly and cut one very short thin orange twist with minimal white pith.

  2. 02

    Measure the pisco, white rum, orange curacao, fresh lime juice, orgeat, and honey syrup into a shaker.

  3. 03

    Fill the shaker with solid cold ice and seal it securely.

  4. 04

    Shake hard until the drink is thoroughly chilled and the nutty syrups are fully integrated.

  5. 05

    Double-strain into the chilled coupe so no ice fragments or citrus pulp reach the glass.

  6. 06

    Express the orange oils lightly, place only the compact twist at the rim, and serve immediately.
