Mysterious, seductive, and a little dangerous — just like Gaga’s legendary poker face. This bold cocktail mixes smoky mezcal with juicy cherry and pomegranate, cut with bright citrus and topped with sparkle. It's a moody masterpiece with glam in every sip. Consider it your ace in the glass!

Edible glitter- We used pink
Black/Bing cherry on a pick or playing card
Directions
Shake all ingredients except garnishes with ice until well chilled.
Double strain into a chilled rocks glass or vintage coupe glass.
Add a touch of edible glitter for “poker night” glam.
Garnish with a cherry or go full Gaga with a playing card clipped to the rim with a mini clothespin for added drama-( we used the Joker for a Lady Gaga tie back to the movie Joker.)
