ABV in San Francisco specializes in mezcal. This menu staple highlights Del Maguey’s smoky single-village Santo Domingo Albarradas, which gets mixed with sweet and sour grapefruit shrub, lime juice, dry curaçao and egg white. Served down over seltzer, the fluffed up fizz is equal parts sour, smoky and smooth.
