Ingredients
- handful of fresh mint leaves
- 2 shots bourbon
- 4 shots of Natalie’s Honey Tangerine juice
- 2 teaspoons agave nectar
- 4 ice cubes for shaking
- 2 – 4 large ice cubes for serving
- 2 blood orange wedges for garnish
- Place mint leaves and 1 shot of bourbon into a glass with a thick bottom. I muddled mine in the metal shaker, but a pint glass also works.
- Use the muddling tool to press down the mint leaves and twist for about 1-2 minutes.
- Add another shot of bourbon, 4 shots of Natalie’s Honey Tangerine juice, the agave, and about 4 ice cubes to the metal shaker.
- Place a pint glass upside down and inside the shaker so it makes a nice seal. Shake it for about 15 seconds.
- Place two large ice cubes in each glass and then strain the cocktail, dividing it among the glasses.
- Garnish with a blood orange wedge for added color and fun.
Tips
For serving cocktails you want really large ice cubes. I made mine with mini muffin tins and placed a mint leaf in each cube for decoration.
For shaking, though, you can use whatever ice cubes you have on hand. I used about 4 regular ice cubes.
