History

Dry, lightly bitter, with faint mezcal smokiness and delicate pear.

Alexandre Girard created this drink in 2017 at La Queue du Coq in Annecy, France. He shared that "Suzette is the name of French song. It's the story of a guy who falls in love with Suzette; a smart, smooth, incredible young woman. The scene takes place in a local dance in the middle of summer."
