ServES 1
INGREDIENTS
45 ml white rum
30 ml dry vermouth
10 ml Cointreau/orange curaçao
15-20 ml Bartender’s Daughter Grenadine Syrup
Orange twist for garnish
METHOD
1. stir
Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass filled with ice. Stir well until chilled.
2. Strain
Strain into a chilled coupe glass.
3. Garnish
Express an orange twist over the top and drop it into the glass for a burst of citrus aroma.*
*How to express:
Cut the Twist: Use a paring knife or vegetable peeler to cut a thin strip of orange peel. Try to avoid including too much of the white pith, as it can be bitter.
Express the Oils: Hold the peel over the cocktail with the shiny side facing down. Gently squeeze or bend the peel to release its aromatic oils onto the drink’s surface.
Garnish (Optional): You can drop the twist into the cocktail for added citrus flavor, or run the peel’s outer side around the rim of the glass for an extra aromatic touch.
