Ingredients
4 blood oranges
1.5 ounces blood orange vodka
1 ounce Triple Sec
2 ounces blood orange soda
Directions
Remove a 4-inch-long and ½-inch-wide strip of zest from one of the blood oranges using a peeler or paring knife.
Cut small slits halfway through the outer edge of the peel.
Flip the peel over and tightly roll up with the white pith on the outside.
Secure the peel with a wooden pick.
Fan the edges of the peel and arrange it to look like a frill.
Cut a ¼-inch slice from the same orange and then cut the slice in half.
Attach one half to the wooden pick with the zest frill. Set the garnish aside.
Juice the oranges to measure 3 ounces of juice.
Fill a rocks glass halfway with ice cubes.
Add the vodka and Triple Sec.
Pour in the blood orange juice.
Top the drink with the blood orange soda.
Garnish the cocktail with the orange peel garnish or a wedge of blood orange and serve.
