Instructions

  • Shake vigorously and strain into a rocks glass filled with fresh ice.
  • Slowly sink the cranberry juice by pouring it gently against the side of the glass.
  • Float the butterfly pea flower-infused vodka by slowly pouring it over the back of a bar spoon just above the ice to create a layered effect.

Notes

Pro Tips
  • For a more dramatic color transition, allow the cranberry juice and butterfly pea flower vodka to settle before serving.
  • Chilling the glass beforehand enhances the visual layers and keeps the drink cool.
  • Use freshly squeezed orange and lime juice for a fresher taste.
