Kurant Juice Break

 

This cocktail doesn't lie. It is a juicy drink. It is actually a proprietary Absolut Kurant vodka recipe that I've adapted to using my red currant liqueur and Smirnoff vodka. I also substituted Royal Combier for Grand Marnier because you can totally switch one spiced orange cognac for another. 

The Juice Break is best if you are using fresh squeezed orange juice as shown here. You can safe an orange slice from one of the oranges to garnish with.

• 2 oz. vodka (Absolut Kurant suggested but Smirnoff used)
• 1/2 oz. currant spirit (if you don't have Absolut Kurant)
• 1/2 oz. Grand Marnier or Royal Combier
• 2 oz. Orange Juice
• orange slice
• maraschino cherry

Combine liquid ingredients in a shaker with ice. Shake and pour into a Cooler glass or a highball. Garnish with cherry and orange slice.
