I finally found some blood oranges last week so I had to make some cocktails with them and didn’t want to use them up by juicing them so after a few trials I ended up using the Monin Blood Orange syrup in their place and saved the beautiful fruit as a garnish. This cocktail started as a classic whiskey sour but I found that the blood orange worked better with a white rum and the orange bitters really help to just top off the flavors.

Recipe:

• 2 ounces white rum
• 1 ounce lemon juice
• ¾ ounce Monin Blood Orange
• 2 dashes orange bitters
• 1 egg white

Method:

1. Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice
2. Shake hard to chill and combine ingredients
3. Strain out ice and hard shake again for a silky consistency
4. Fine strain into a cocktail glass
5. Garnish with blood orange
6. Enjoy!
