Blood Orange Delight

This one could be a patio pounder, but we are still in dry January. Even if we weren’t, you won’t miss the gin (too much) with this one, though. The bitters’ flavors offer the botanicals we love in gin, and the blood orange adds a tart, bright light. The lemon zest Pellegrino provides a satisfying, refreshing finish, leaving you wanting more. Eight days and counting…

Cheers! You’re almost there.

Blood Orange Delight

Ingredients

1/2 of one blood orange

1 oz of agave

4 oz of lemon Pellegrino sparkling water

3-6 dashes All the Bitter cardamon coriander blood orange non-alcoholic bitters

Method

In a mixing tin, muddle half of a blood orange, pressing out as much juice as possible. A room temperature rolled orange helps. Add agave and ice, then shake until the mixing tin is cold. If you prefer a pulp-filled drink, strain into a bucket glass; if not, double strain. To double strain, use a Hawthorne strainer with a fine mesh strainer. Add ice to your bucket glass and top with lemon Pellegrino.

Glass: Bucket Glass

Garnish: Thinly sliced blood orange circle. Brûlée the orange using sugar and a torch for a fancy touch.

Bar Chef Note: Double-check all bitters ingredients for allergens and interactions
