Instructions

The Crimson Sunset Sizzle is a nuanced take on the classic bourbon cocktail with a spicy twist and a visually stunning presentation. This concoction is lovingly crafted to merge the warmth of bourbon with the zesty brightness of blood orange and the piquant kick of ginger beer, rounded out with the subtle depth of orange bitters. **Ingredients:** - 2 oz Bourbon - 4 oz Blood orange ginger beer - 1/2 oz Fresh blood orange juice - 1/4 oz Lime juice - 2 dashes Orange bitters - Blood orange slice, for garnish - Candied ginger, for garnish - Ice cubes **Glass:** - Highball Glass **Method:** 1. Fill the highball glass with ice cubes to chill. 2. In a mixing glass, combine the bourbon, fresh blood orange juice, lime juice, and orange bitters. 3. Add ice to the mixing glass and stir the mixture for about 30 seconds to properly chill and dilute the drink slightly. 4. Strain the mixture into the prepared highball glass filled with fresh ice. 5. Top the glass with blood orange ginger beer, stirring gently to integrate without disrupting the effervescence. 6. Garnish with a thin wheel of blood orange and a skewered piece of candied ginger resting atop the drink. 7. Serve immediately and watch as the sunset hues of the drink dazzle the eye before the sizzle tantalizes the taste buds. The balanced interplay of sweetness, spice, and the robust character of bourbon makes the Crimson Sunset Sizzle a beguiling choice for any cocktail hour or as an accompaniment to a fine dinner. Enjoy responsibly!
