Cocktail Recipes

The Improved Blood and Sand (Tim Lacey)

1.5 oz. Scotch (I prefer something with a touch of smoke, like Talisker)
.75 oz. Cherry Heering
1 oz. sweet vermouth (I like using Punt e Mes for this)
.75 oz. orange juice
.25 oz. lemon juice
.25 oz. simple syrup
tools: shaker, strainer, vegetable peeler
glass: cocktail
garnish: orange oil

Combine all ingredients and shake with ice. Strain into chilled cocktail glass. Using the vegetable peeler, cut a piece of orange peel. Squeeze the peel over the drink to express the oils and run peel around the rim of the glass. Discard the peel.
