We have to admit that besides the culture and beautiful sights, the best things about traveling are the experiences we bring back home with us. Like the days lounging in walnut mid-century chairs in Ignacia Guest House’s cactus-lined courtyard sipping on a spicy and citrusy cocktail. It left such a lasting impression that we asked the lovely owners to send us home with the recipe just so we could live vicariously through our mezcal.
