Mezcal — MZ14 — Later boozy recipes separate roles from methods

Annotation

Midnight Marauder210 includes an incongruous Jamaican-rum tip though its formula has none; preserve the mismatch rather than add rum. Syrup instructions205–206 require interpreting nested preparations. Dilution evolution is anecdotal, not a measured optimal resting time or whiskey-blend mechanism.
