The intersection of tart lime, bitter orange, and maraschino brings mezcal from base note to supporting character in this memorable number from Phil Ward. Pink Floyd’s seminal album served as the cocktail's namesake, as the track list accompanied Ward during the homestretch of building out the bar at Mayahuel in New York. “One of my happy places was when, nearing completion, we would have lots and lots of wood to stain,” he says. “I’d stay there all by myself after everyone else was gone and drink beer, smoke a little, and listen to Pink Floyd while I stained the beams and such.”
