An unexpected yet very attractive Mezcal pairing.

Hand-made by mezcaleros that follow traditional Zapotec recipes in open-air palanques in the rural hills of Oaxaca, Madre is a true celebration of Mother Earth. Taking natural ingredients like local water, natural air-borne yeast, minerals from the earthen pit-oven to roast the agave, it’s like you can taste the earth it comes from in their bottles. And besides their classic Madre Mezcal offerings, you can also taste it in four different Madre Desert Water offerings.

Inspired by the tradition of what they call ranch water in West Texas, Madre Desert Water is a mix of Mezcal and sparkling water that perfectly quenches thirst on hot summer days. These ready-to-drink canned cocktails are the perfect introduction to the world of Mezcal for the beginner but they’re not any less appealing to the connoisseurs, either, who can enjoy a new form of Mezcal.

And did you know that Mezcal used to be considered a plant medicine? This is why besides blending Madre Espadin mezcal with sparkling water and real fruit, plants and herbs, Madre Desert Water includes traditionally healing ingredients like adaptogenic mushrooms, anti-inflammatory herbs, and anti-fungal cacti. The unique flavor profiles they bring to the table are a great bonus, too.

Madre Desert Water Mushroom, Sage & Honey is perhaps the most intriguing and unexpected blend in the collection. It's crafted with Reishi and Chaga mushrooms that are complemented by honey and a hint of sage. What you get is a balanced blend of earthy and herbaceous notes. All of the ingredients, including sage, honey, and mushrooms, are recognised for a wide range of healing benefits from boosting the immune system to anti-bacterial and antioxidant properties. But we adore it for the unique and tasty flavors alone. This one will win over the most demanding Mezcal fan while being approachable enough for the beginner.
