Good to know

Chef's tip

🍊🧙‍♀️ Add an orange slice or a small sugar bat decoration on the rim of the glass for an even more festive effect. 👻✨

Freezing : Can you freeze this recipe?

Not recommended

Alcohol doesn't freeze effectively, and freezing would alter the texture and flavor.

Storage : How long does it keep?

Cocktails are made and consumed immediately to keep freshness and texture. Ice dilutes the drink over time.

Making ahead : Can you make it the day before?

Same day

Make it just before serving for the freshness of the citrus and the integrity of the ice.

Reheating : How do you reheat it?

Not relevant, served chilled or over ice.

Variations

  • Rim the glasses with sugar for a party presentation.
  • Top with a little sparkling water for a lighter cocktail.
  • Add an orange twist as garnish.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Using store-bought orange juice: the flavor is flatter. Squeeze fresh oranges.
  • Shaking too briefly: the cocktail isn't cold enough. Shake for about 15 seconds.
  • Serving without straining: bits of ice end up in the glass. Use a cocktail strainer.

Frequently asked questions

Which Martini should you choose for this cocktail?

Martini is a vermouth: choose a bianco for a milder, more floral cocktail, or a rosso for more bitterness. Fresh orange juice and orange liqueur balance either version well.

How do you rim the glasses with sugar?

Run an orange wedge around the rim of the glass, then dip it in a plate of sugar. You can use colored or dark sugar for the Halloween effect. Let it dry for a moment before pouring in the cocktail.

Can you make this cocktail without a shaker?

Yes, mix the ingredients in a large glass with crushed ice, stir for a long time with a spoon, then strain into the glasses. A sealed jar also works as an improvised shaker to shake the mixture.

Why let the cocktail rest in the refrigerator?

An hour in the refrigerator lets the flavors blend and the cocktail get properly cold, without diluting it too much. Then serve it in chilled glasses, with fresh ice or an orange twist if you like.
