Naked and Famous cocktail

The Naked and Famous cocktail is an equal-parts cocktail featuring mezcal, yellow Chartreuse, Aperol and freshly squeezed lime juice. The drink is a pale orange colour with a bright but complex taste.

Naked and Famous is a sweet herbal concoction that is balanced by sour lime and delicious smoky mezcal flavours. Mezcal is a distilled spirit made from the agave plant, which is also how we get tequila.

The Naked and Famous cocktail was invented in 2011 by bartender Joaquín Simó in New York.
