Octavio Pause or Mexican Mojito

  • The Octavio Pause, a pun that is meant to pay made homage to Mexico’s legendary poet, philosopher, and author, Octavio Paz, is Miss Flighty’s effort to make a Mexican Mojito. Cilantro takes the place of the mint and the tall summer refresher has a bit of heat, lime, zesty tangerine, the rhubarb spice Italian bitter Aperol, and the award-winning 100% blue agave tequila Gran Centanario as the drinks driving force. With a festive feel of afternoons at a seaside Mexican village, the Octavio Pause is a tasty alternative to the Cuban Mojito.
