Orange

Array

Blood and Sand

Old Ratio: Equal parts Cherry Heering, blended Scotch, sweet vermouth, and orange juice
New Ratio: 1 part Cherry Heering, 2 parts blended Scotch (such as Chivas), 1 part sweet vermouth, 1⅓ parts orange juice
The Reasoning: Tasted with the traditional ratio, “it’s like there’s no Scotch in it,” says Shapiro. ”It could be anything. It’s like dessert in a glass.” The new version, however, “is still sweet, but you can taste Scotch in it.”

Satan's Whiskers

This tastes like a screwdriver gone wrong, and not in a good, interesting way. Perhaps eliminate the OJ and up the bitters?

1 ounce gin
1/2 ounce sweet vermouth
1/2 ounce dry vermouth
1/2 ounce orange liqueur (try Grand Marnier or orange curaçao)
1 ounce fresh-squeezed orange juice
1 dash orange bitters

Combine the ingredients in a Boston shaker or cocktail shaker. Add ice and shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Strain the contents into a chilled cocktail glass.

Mexican Martini

Back in Austin, Trudy's has an epic drink called the Mexican Martini. Epic enough such that there's a relatively strict 2/person limit. Luckily, there are multiple Trudy's in town...

The recipe is somewhat contentious. Many have tons of orange juice and even sprite in the recipe, but I remember hearing from a trusted source that there was definitely a bit of rum in the mix. You're aiming for a strong and slightly briney margarita, shaken and served up.

Juice of 2 limes
3 oz tequila (or split with mezcal)
1 oz cointreau
1 oz rum
1 oz orange juice
dash of olive brine
