Ingredients

  • 1 oz tequila blanco
  • 1 oz sweet vermouth
  • 1 oz Campari
  • 1 oz cranberry juice
  • Orange twist for garnish

Instructions

  • In a mixing glass, combine tequila blanco, sweet vermouth, Campari, and cranberry juice.
  • Add ice to the mixing glass and stir until the mixture is well-chilled.
  • Fill a rocks glass with ice, preferably a large cube to minimize dilution.
  • Strain the chilled cocktail into the prepared rocks glass.
  • Hold the orange twist over the glass and twist it firmly to express the oils. Drop the twist into the drink for added aroma and visual appeal.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • Tequila substitution: For a smoky variation, swap tequila blanco with mezcal to add depth.
  • Glass chilling: Pre-chill your rocks glass for an even cooler, more refreshing sip.
  • Cranberry balance: Use unsweetened cranberry juice for a slightly tart finish or sweetened cranberry juice for a smoother flavor.
