Instructions
Place the olallieberries in an old-fashioned glass, add the agave and lightly muddle – just enough to break apart the berries.
Add the lime juice, St. Germain, and mezcal and briefly stir to combine.
Use a blender, food processor, or Lewis bag to crush your ice. You’re looking for as close to a snow-like consistency as possible.
Fill your glass 3/4 of the way with crushed ice. Briefly stir once more to create some dilution.
Top with another heaping mound of crushed ice, garnish with a few fresh olallieberries and key lime wheels and serve!
