DRINK RECIPE

Bot Cocktail Recipe

2 oz cranberry juice
2 oz Skyy vodka
1/2 oz triple sec
1/2 oz lime juice
1 dash orange juice

The easy way to make this drink is to add all listed ingredients with ice into shaker and strain into glass.

However, the really slick way is much more impressive:

Add cranberry juice, lime juice, triple sec and only one ounce vodka into shaker with ice. Strain into glass. Then, mix 1 once orange juice with one ounce vodka in a separate glass.

Fill a turkey baster with the vodka/OJ mix, and slowly inject it into the cranberry glass on the bottom.

This produces a sort of reverse-layering effect, and also ensures both cranberry and OJ will have the same amount of vodka.
