Camp Cooler: A Strawberry and Cherry Tomato Cocktail

A long day of noshing and napping at Field Trip on the banks of the Pecos River demands one thing and one thing only, and that’s a Strawberry and Cherry Tomato Cocktail. Photographer and mixologist extraordinaire Ashley Lynn came up with this beauty as an ode to both Field Trip and the lazy days of summer. There’s a bit of natural sweetness from the strawberry and cherry tomato juice made at home with brightening lemon, mint, spicy Ancho Verde, Fino sherry, as well as a healthy dose of mezcal.
