Method

Cocktail

1

Prepare glass (optional)

If you want a sugared rim, run a cut side of a blood orange around the glass rim, then dip the rim briefly into coarse sugar placed on a small plate. Set the glass aside.

2

Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice.

3

Add 2 oz blood orange vodka, 1 oz fresh blood orange juice, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz simple syrup, 0.25 oz orange liqueur, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters into the shaker.

4

Cap the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker feels very cold and well-chilled.

5

Fill the prepared glass (rocks or coupe) with fresh ice if serving on the rocks. Strain the shaken mixture into the glass using a Hawthorne or fine strainer.

6

If you prefer a lighter, spritzed drink, top with about 1 oz sparkling water and gently stir once to combine.

Garnish

7

Garnish with a blood orange wheel or a twist. If using a twist, express the oils over the drink and rub the peel on the rim before dropping it in.

8

Serve immediately.
