Ingredients
- 45 ml Gin
- 22.5 ml Apricot brandy
- 22.5 ml Orange juice
- Garnish Orange peel
Preparation
- Shake all ingredients with ice.
- Strain into a chilled coupe glass. Don't know how? Pour the drink through a strainer (or the built-in strainer on your shaker) to catch the ice and any solids.
- Garnish with orange peel. Use a peeler or knife to cut a wide strip, avoiding the white pith. Twist it over the drink to release the oils, then drop it in.
Origin Story
The Paradise Cocktail gained popularity in the 1920s, particularly in the United States, as part of the burgeoning cocktail scene. This drink reflects the era's fascination with exotic flavors and the escapism sought during the Roaring Twenties.
