There's something new coming out of one of B.C.'s most popular Baja-style taco restaurant.

While we love the idea of washing down some tacos and burritos with a cold Mexican beer, sometimes, we want to have something stronger or more flavourful. Julia Diakow recently joined Tacofino Gastown to help the team introduce new seasonal cocktails and its happy hour. The new bar manager also introduced three new spirit flights: two tequila flights and one mezcal flight, each with three three-quarter ounce pours, so guests can try a variety of styles.

Here is Diakow's recipe for Tacofino's Coronation Street cocktail, made with gin and mezcal.
