Method
Cocktail
Prepare glass
Chill a highball or Collins glass by filling it with ice and set aside while you mix the cocktail (about 2–3 minutes).
Build and shake
Discard the ice from the glass. In a cocktail shaker add 1 cup of fresh ice, 2 oz Wheatley Vodka, 0.75 oz St. Germain, 1 oz fresh blood orange juice, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice and 0.25 oz simple syrup. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until well chilled.
Strain and top
Fill the chilled glass with fresh ice. Double-strain the shaken mixture into the glass to remove ice shards and pulp. Top with 3 oz chilled ginger beer, pouring gently to preserve carbonation. Stir once gently with a bar spoon to integrate.
Notes
Adjust sweetness by increasing or decreasing the simple syrup by 0.25 oz. Use freshly squeezed blood orange juice for best color and flavor; if blood oranges are out of season, a 1 oz mix of equal parts fresh orange and a splash of pomegranate can approximate the profile.
