Sweet, tangy, and bitter - say hello to the Blood Orange Side Car 🍊
A great way to elevate any cocktail is to incorporate a unique or exotic element - and here the blood orange does just that! While a regular orange would look great, the swap of the blood orange creates both a visual effect and flavour profile that's not as familiar - and definitely more exciting!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 ounce dark rum
1/2 ounce orange liqueur
1/2 ounce fresh squeezed blood orange juice
1/4 ounce lime juice
How-To:
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and all ingredients in shaker.
Shake well and strain into glasses of choice - we love a coupe fo this one.
Garnish with a slice of blood orange, and rind twirl. If you want some added sweetness, sugar the rim of your glass before pouring.
Pro Tip: Keep your glasses in the freezer before mixing, makes for an extra cold finish!
Cheers!
