Cîroc Recipe

Prepare glass

If serving on the rocks, fill a rocks or highball glass with 3 ice cubes and set aside. For a chilled straight-up serve, chill the glass in the freezer or fill with ice and water while preparing the cocktail, then discard before straining.

Measure ingredients

Using a jigger, measure 2 oz Cîroc vodka, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.5 oz simple syrup into a cocktail shaker.

Add ice and shake

Add about 6 ice cubes to the shaker. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the outside of the shaker becomes frosty and the contents are well chilled and slightly diluted.

Strain and serve

Place a strainer over the shaker and strain the cocktail into the prepared glass over fresh ice if serving on the rocks, or double-strain into the chilled glass for a straight-up presentation.

Optional lengthen

If you prefer a longer, lighter drink, top the strained cocktail with about 1 oz club soda and gently stir once to combine.

Garnish and finish

Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim or floated on top. Serve immediately.

Use the jigger to measure spirits and mixers accurately. Use the citrus juicer to extract fresh lime juice for best flavor. Use the shaker and strainer as described above. Chill or prepare the glass as directed.
