    Some thoughts and comments

    The Nixta would be good in #tiki style drinks - there's an unctousness and cinnamon hint that could work well.
    (Nixta is sweetened with piloncillo too so that's a good match already)

    My apologies to true #mezcal enthusiasts - the good stuff don't need to be in cocktails - this is just Espadin (and yes not great how that cultivation is displacing wild stuff)

    Mezcal is a software interface for developing experimental, distributed, mobile, migratory, and collaborative transmission events. As an online service, it allows multiple remote participants to collaborate in real-time on a live radio broadcast with low-latency through off-the-shelf browsers. It lives on the web as a 24/7 WebRTC multipoint control unit and is designed for low-bandwidth, scalability, and under principles of accessibility and mobile-first. Each person that visits the url for the server is able to enter their name and connect.

    Like IRC, it currently has no mandatory authentication. Each participant has their own mixing interface with a chat in the browser where they can mix two types of audio channels: one pink/red track for mic and external devices, another grey track for audio playback from files, databases (freesound, archive.org, wavefarm) and the network.

    The mix of each participant is sent to the server as one opus-encoded RTC stream and then returned with the mix of all participants (minus the sending user to avoid feedback).
