Ingredients
1 mandarin or other small sweet citrus fruit like satsumas or clementine
1.5 tsp sugar
1 oz / 3 cl Campari
1 oz / 3 cl Blood Orange Bitters
2 oz / 6 cl Gin
Blood orange for garnish
Instructions
Cut the mandarin in half and add to a cocktail shaker. Add the sugar and muddle. You want to get as much juice and flesh out of the mandarin as possible.
After muddling, add ice, Campari and gin. Follow with bitters and use a stirring stick to mix the flavors.
Combine sugar and salt in equal proportions. Pour it onto a small saucer. Wet the rim of the cocktail glass with the mandarin slice. Then turn the glass upside down into the sugar and salt mix to create the sugar salt rim on the glass.
Pour the mixed drink into your glass without ice and add a mandarin slice to garnish.
Notes
If you don’t like pulp, use a sieve to strain your drinks while pouring.
