Naked and Famous

IBA

A 21st-century equal-parts cocktail created by New York bartender Joaquín Simó in 2011, the Naked and Famous applies a modern, rigorous approach to balancing bold, disparate ingredients. Smoky mezcal and bitter Aperol meet the herbal intensity of Yellow Chartreuse and the sharpness of fresh lime, producing a drink of striking complexity where no single element dominates.
