This fizzy cocktail has been around for a little while and certainly makes a Splash on Valentines Day. We think this combination is too good not to sample.
Ingredients
- 1.5 parts Gin
- 3 parts Champagne or Sparkling Wine
- 0.25 parts Simple Syrup
- 0.5 parts Lemon Juice
- 1 Small Blood Orange
Instructions
- Fill drinking apparatus with Crushed Ice.
- Slice an orange wheel out of the Blood Orange, and squeeze the rest into your Boston Shaker.
- Squeeze half a lemon into your Cocktail Shaker.
- Add the Gin and Agave or Simple Syrup to the Shaker and agitate well.
- Strain into glass and top with your bubbly.
- Garnish with that blood orange wheel you saved.
- (optional) Clean up the massive mess you made.
Notes
If you don't like bubbles, you can top with something lighter like 7-up, or even a dry white wine. Garnish with a wheel for a large glass, or a twist for a champagne flute.
As always; don't forget to wear your Safety Goggles and Red Lab Coat (hides the mess easier).
