Virgin
“Simple and uncomplicated” is how Fernandez likes his drinks, which refers to Virgos. Enjoy high-quality Mezcal that’s best served at room temperature and neat. The smoky, barely sweet drink doesn’t need any mixers and works well on its own.

Scorpio
Loving but sometimes mysterious and complicated, Scorpio can benefit from the classics like an old-fashioned. It’s a bit of sweet, with a little bit of bitterness, and should you actually need to change things up, try the Wisconsin style, which swaps brandy for whiskey.

Capricorn
For an after-dinner energy boost, you’ll be able to try an espresso martini. But Carajillo is just as great, if not higher. It’s simply equal parts espresso and Licor 43, a Spanish liqueur with notes of vanilla and a touch of subtle spice.
