A good friend passed this one along to me. Blood and Sand was created from the 1922 classic silent movie of the same name starring Rudolf Valentino. It is making a comeback in bars across the country that are going back to classic cocktails. This is one of only a few that feature Scotch!
The recipe calls for equal parts of all ingredients, but for a smoother taste you may want a little more scotch and orange juice.
Ingredients:
3/4 oz good Scotch
3/4 oz Orange juice
3/4 oz Cherry liqueur
3/4 oz Sweet vermouth
In a shaker with ice combine all ingredients, shake well and strain into a martini glass. You can garnish with a cherry or a slice of orange zest.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
ENJOY!
