We Olive Blood Orange Blossom Cocktail

Share

Adding Olive Oil to a cocktail is an excellent way to make it a bit more of a savory experience and balance out some of the sweetness that can occur when using mixers, juices, or fruit. It also adds some light earthy notes to a drink, making it perfect for summer sipping, or to pair with light salads, chicken dishes, and much more. 

INGREDIENTS

  • 1-ounce gin (look for one that has more botanical notes, we like to use Bombay Sapphire Gin for this cocktail)
  • 1/2 ounce fresh lemon juice or lemonade 
  • 1/2 ounce We Olive Blood Orange Oil
  • 1/2 ounce Simple Syrup 
  • Dash of angostura bitters (optional) 
  • Top off with Squirt (we fill the rest of the glass with whatever room is left)
  • Fresh mint to garnish (optional)

DIRECTIONS

In a shaker filled with ice, add the gin, lemon juice, Blood Orange Infused Olive Oil, simple syrup, and bitters (if you’re using them). Shake vigorously for about 30-45 seconds—strain contents into a martini or coupe glass. Pour Squirt on top. 

Optional- Top with whipped Aquafaba and mint.
