Chill a cocktail coupe in advance to enhance the serving experience.

Prepare a twist of grapefruit zest for garnishing.

Combine the Del Maguey Vida Clásico Mezcal, Italian red bitter liqueur, elderflower liqueur, and freshly squeezed pink grapefruit juice in a cocktail shaker.

Add ice and shake the mixture vigorously until well chilled.

Fine strain the cocktail into the pre-chilled coupe glass.

Express the grapefruit zest over the cocktail to release its aromatic oils and use it as a garnish.
