Notes

Pro Tips
  • Use freshly squeezed blood orange juice for the most vibrant flavor and color.
  • Shake the cocktail vigorously to ensure a well-mixed and chilled drink.
  • Adjust the club soda ratio based on preference—less for a stronger cocktail, more for a lighter and spritzer feel.
  • For a smokier herbal note, lightly torch or char the rosemary sprig before garnishing.
  • Swap vodka for gin if you want more botanical depth.
