Method
Cocktail
Chill glass
Place a rocks glass or coupe in the freezer for at least 5 minutes, or fill with ice and set aside while you prepare the cocktail.
Measure and combine
Add 2 oz Tanqueray gin, 1 oz Aperol, 0.75 oz lime sour, and 1 oz cranberry juice into a cocktail shaker.
Add ice and shake
Fill the shaker with ice (about 6 medium ice cubes). Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the shaker exterior becomes frosty and well chilled.
Strain
Discard ice from the chilled glass if used. Double strain the cocktail into the chilled glass: use a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer if available to remove small ice shards and any pulp.
Garnish & Finish
Serveware
Serve in a chilled rocks glass over no ice for a neat cocktail presentation, or in the chilled coupe. Provide a short stirring spoon or cocktail pick if garnished.
