The Bittersweet

By Carrie Floyd, from the Culinate Kitchen collection

Serves

Introduction

You can either serve this drink up, in a martini glass, or on the rocks.

Ingredients

	¼	cup Campari
	¼	cup plus 2 Tablespoons sweet vermouth
	½	cup freshly squeezed orange juice
	2	Tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice
	⅛	tsp. rose water (optional)
	~	Superfine sugar (optional)
	~	Orange slices for garnish (optional)

Steps

Drink Assembly No. 1: Combine all the ingredients (except the superfine sugar and the orange slices) in a 2-cup measuring cup, stir to mix, then divide into bucket-type glasses filled with ice before garnishing with the orange slices.
Drink Assembly No. 2: Make sugar rims on your martini glasses by running a lemon wedge around the rim of the glasses, then swirling the moistened edges in a saucer of superfine sugar. Place all the remaining ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice; shake, then strain into the glasses.
