During these days of sheltering in place, Chicagoans are getting creative with cocktails—and we're helping out with recipes from some of the city's top mixology stars. Here, a favorite from Mark Phelan, bar manager of Revival Café-Bar at Revival Food Hall.

"The White Lightning cocktail is a drier, more vegetal rendition of a white negroni. The mezcal provides heft and liveliness, the pisco adds florality, and the Suze and Cocchi create a balanced, herbal, bittersweet sensation throughout. It's simple to make and a favorite of our bar." –Mark Phelan

1oz Mezcal (our bar uses Banhez Ensemble)
