ABBEY COCKTAIL

ABBEY COCKTAIL♦
To get this drink where I want it, I have already added the word
“fresh” in front of the orange juice and changed the standard
orange zest to a flamed orange peel. But for an even bigger flavor
impact: Cut an orange slice or two and toss into the shaker before
you add the other ingredients. Bruise the meat and the skin of the
orange slices with a bar muddler or a wooden spoon, then add
the other ingredients and the ice, and shake hard. Strain into a
cocktail glass, then taste.
1½ ounces gin
¾ ounce Lillet Blonde
1 ounce fresh orange juice
Dash of Angostura or orange bitters
Flamed orange peel, for garnish
Shake all the ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled
cocktail glass. Garnish with the flamed orange peel.
