Ingredients

1 servings
  • 1 ½ ounces gin
  • 1 small blood orange (about the size of a lemon), juiced
  • ½ small lemon, juiced
  • Agave nectar or simple syrup (optional), to taste
  • 3 ounces Champagne or sparkling wine
  • Ice

Steps

  1. Fill a Champagne flute or comparably sized glass less than halfway with crushed ice (optional).

  2. Fill a small cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the gin and the blood orange and lemon juice. Shake well. Taste and add agave nectar or simple syrup if necessary, to taste.

  3. Strain the gin mixture into the glass. Top with Champagne. Garnish with a blood orange twist (you’ll see in the pictures that I played around with garnishes but the twist is more traditional).
