Blood & Sand Cocktail - Drink Recipe

Описание: ORIGIN:
Based on the original recipe found in Harry Craddock's "The Savoy Cocktail Book", London 1930

INGREDIENTS USED (IN ORDER SHOWN):
1 oz (30 ml) fresh orange juice
3/4 oz (22.5 ml) sweet vermouth
3/4 oz (22.5 ml) Heering cherry liqueur
(can sub with Luxardo Sangue Morlacco Liqueur, do not sub with Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur)
1 oz (30 ml) Scotch whiskey

Garnish with Luxardo maraschino cherry

EQUIPMENT USED:
Cocktail glass (coupe glass)
Boston shaker
Hawthorne strainer
Fine mesh strainer (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS:
Add ice to the small shaker. Switch it out for the large shaker. Add the ingredients in the order shown above. Combine the shakers and shake for 10-12 seconds. Put your Hawthorne strainer on the large shaker and get out your chilled cocktail glass. I used a coupe glass. Use a fine mesh strainer (if you have one) and pour the cocktail into the glass. Garnish with a Luxardo maraschino cherry and enjoy this unique tasting beverage.

NOTE: I don't like to name specific brands of alcohol because everyone has their favorites and it takes away from the core build of the drink. Also, I'm always discovering new brands and trying them in these very cocktails. However, if you would like suggestions, feel free to put it in the comments and I'll post the brands that I enjoy.
