Cocktail

Method

Cocktail

1

Chill glass

Place a coupe or martini glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes, or fill it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.

2

Combine ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, add 1 cup of ice, 2 oz vodka, 1 oz triple sec, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz fresh blood orange juice, 0.5 oz cranberry juice, 0.25 oz simple syrup, and 1 dash orange bitters.

3

Shake

Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker feels very cold and well-chilled. This both chills and dilutes the drink to proper balance.

4

Double strain and serve

Discard the ice or water from the chilled glass. Double-strain the cocktail into the chilled coupe/martini glass using a cocktail strainer and a fine mesh strainer to remove ice shards and pulp for a silky finish.

Garnish & Finish

5

Express the orange peel over the surface of the cocktail by holding it skin-side down over the glass and giving it a firm twist to release oils. Rub the peel around the rim, then drop it into the drink. Optionally float a dehydrated citrus wheel on top for presentation.
