Blood in the Water: Gin Cocktail with a hit of tang

This Gin cocktail takes blood orange to create a new take on a gin gimlet. I like to play with cocktails and this one is just a bright spot. It's perfect for a Monday. Something to take the edge off.

Blood in the Water

Gin Cocktail

Ingredients

2 oz Gin

1 oz Orange Liqueur

1 oz Lime Juice

1 oz Blood Orange Juice

1/2 oz Simple Syrup

Top with Sparkling Water

Garnish: Lime Wedge

Recipe

In a cocktail shaker with ice, pour all ingredients. In general, I like to start with alcohol and then go to the mixers when I do my pours. I love to create something balanced so it requires a good shake. You need to mix it up!
