Method
Syrup
Make blood orange simple syrup
Combine 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan. Add 1 tablespoon fresh blood orange zest. Heat over medium, stirring until sugar dissolves and mixture just comes to a simmer. Reduce heat and simmer gently for 2 minutes to infuse zest. Remove from heat and let steep 15 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove zest and cool to room temperature. Transfer to a bottle and refrigerate; yields about 1 cup (8 fl oz).
Cocktail
Juice and measure
Juice fresh blood oranges until you have about 2 oz (about 1 small blood orange) of juice. Measure 0.5 oz fresh lime juice and set aside.
Build the hiball
Fill a highball glass with ice (cubes or crushed). Pour in 1.5 oz vodka, 2 oz fresh blood orange juice, 0.5 oz blood orange simple syrup, and 0.5 oz fresh lime juice. Add 2 dashes Angostura bitters.
