Crimson Disco

Description

Cranberry liqueur brings a tart red-fruit impression over rum, with orange cordial softening the centre of the sip. Sparkling wine gives it lift, and orange peel carries the citrus into the finish. It’s a spritz with a clear cranberry accent and a little cane-spirit warmth.

20 ml Cranberry liqueur
10 ml Orange cordial
60 ml Sparkling Wine
Ice
Orange Twist
