Garnish & Finish

Method

Build & Stir

1

Chill glass

If you prefer a colder drink and less dilution, place a rocks glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.

2

Add the reposado tequila, Campari, and sweet vermouth to a mixing glass or shaker tin (do not shake).

3

Fill the mixing glass with plenty of ice (enough to reach the top and chill rapidly). Using a bar spoon, stir the mixture briskly for 20–30 seconds (about 20–30 full rotations) until well chilled and slightly diluted — the glass should feel cold to the touch and the outside of the mixing glass may show light frost.

4

Discard the ice or water from the chilled rocks glass, if you used it, and add 1–2 large ice cubes to the glass.

5

Strain the stirred cocktail over the large ice cubes into the rocks glass using a julep strainer or the mixing-glass lip to hold back the ice.

Garnish & Serve

6

Take a strip of orange peel about 1/2" wide and 2–3" long. Express the oils by holding it over the drink, skin-side down, and pinching firmly so the oils spray across the surface.

7

Run the rim of the glass with the orange peel briefly and drop the peel into the drink as garnish (or thread it on a pick and rest on the ice).

8

Serve immediately. Optional: for a slightly smokier aroma, briefly flame the expressed peel by holding a lit match or lighter flame between the peel and the drink while expressing the oils (exercise caution).
