Packing an ultra-savory punch and garnished with a crisp, thin sheet of nori, think of this as an appetizer and a drink in one glass. Reach for a mezcal instead of vodka to make this drink adds surprisingly welcome smoky notes, while the miso paste adds an underlying umami profile to this classically savory cocktail. You'll need a few Japanese pantry staples to properly make this drink, all of which are sure to prove versatile for making other recipes. Shiro dashi, shichimi togarashi, kombu powder, wasabi powder, and white miso paste can be found at most Asian markets or online at japanesetaste.com. Chinese black vinegar can be found at most Asian markets or online at bokksumarket.com.
