Batch Cocktails: Orange and Rum

In a recent blogpost we looked at various ideas for signature cocktails, but what if you prefer something with stronger, bitter flavours of rum and orange? Well we’ve got you covered with a delicious rum and orange cocktail! Not only that, we’ve already batched the recipe to make it even easier to make (and drink).

We’d describe this cocktail as starting out as warm, light molasses sweetness with the first sip and then transforming into a pleasant bitter finish, with a smoky aftertaste. 

Ingredients and Equipment:

• Appleton Estate Signature Rum
• Amaro Montenegro
• Carpano Antica Formula Vermouth
• Grapefruit Bitters

• Ice Cubes
• Orange or Grapefruit peel twist for topping

• iKegger Mini Keg System
• Nitrogen Bulbs for serving
