Here’s your guide to pairing Mezcal 33 with traditional Thanksgiving dishes, elevating each bite with a unique Mexican flair for a truly unforgettable feast.

1. Turkey and reposado mezcal

The centerpiece of Thanksgiving, turkey, with its savory notes and juicy texture, pairs excellently with a Mezcal 33 reposado. The aging process in reposado introduces hints of oak, vanilla, and caramel that play beautifully with the flavors of roasted turkey. For a bolder approach, add a touch of smoked chili to your mezcal for an extra kick that complements the turkey’s natural savoriness.

2. Stuffing and Mezcal 33 joven 

Stuffing is one of the most aromatic dishes, packed with herbs, spices, and sometimes even fruits. A Mezcal 33 joven pairs well here, with its raw and vibrant agave notes that cut through the richness of stuffing. The fresh, grassy flavors in Mezcal 33 joven,  balance the spices and herbs, creating a refreshing contrast. 

3. Cranberry sauce and Mezcal 33 joven 

Cranberry sauce, with its tart and sweet profile, pairs beautifully with a Mezcal 33 joven, that has subtle citrus notes. The fresh, smoky essence of the Mezcal 33 enhances the tangy brightness of the cranberry, while balancing its sweetness. This pairing brings a refreshing lift to the table, adding a zesty and lively touch to each bite and sip.

4. Mashed potatoes and Mezcal 33 reposado

For the creamy, comforting richness of mashed potatoes, a Mezcal 33 reposado is an ideal match. The oak-aging process imparts a smooth, buttery character with hints of vanilla and caramel, complementing the mashed potatoes’ texture. The reposado adds depth without overpowering the dish, creating a warm and satisfying combination.

5. Pumpkin pie and Mezcal 33 reposado 

End the feast with a pairing of Mezcal 33 reposado and pumpkin pie. The warming, spiced undertones in the reposado mirror the pie’s flavors of cinnamon and nutmeg, adding a smooth, rich note to each bite. This pairing brings balance and harmony to the dessert, making for a festive and flavorful finale to your Thanksgiving celebration.

Enjoy responsibly, and let the mezcal add a spark of adventure to your holiday celebration!
