"Beverage director Megan Barnes named this spicy and smoky blend ($13) after Elton John’s seventh studio album. The drink combines Espadín mezcal, Mexican fernet, velvet falernum, pineapple-and-chile syrup, and corazón bitters. Other musically-inspired drinks this season at Shaw’s Oaxacan-influenced restaurant honor Drake and Leon Bridges." - Tierney Plumb
