Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.75 oz Premium Vodka
  • 0.75 oz White Cranberry Juice
  • 0.5 oz Cointreau
  • 0.5 oz Freshly Squeezed Lime Juice
  • 1 dash Orange Bitters

Equipment

  • Boston Shaker
  • Jigger
  • Hawthorne Strainer
  • Fine mesh strainer

Method
 

  1. Chill a coupe glass in the freezer for at least 5 minutes.
  2. Combine vodka, white cranberry juice, Cointreau, lime juice and orange bitters in a shaker tin.
  3. Fill the shaker with solid ice cubes.
  4. Shake hard for 12–15 seconds until the tin frosts over and the liquid turns silky.
  5. Double strain into the chilled coupe to remove fine ice shards.
  6. Express a thin lime peel over the surface, rim the glass lightly and discard or rest it neatly on the edge.

Notes

  • White cranberry juice is more delicate than standard cranberry-shake aggressively to fully integrate citrus without overpowering its subtle flavor.
