Notes

Preparation

To Make Ahead: The orangetini is a great freezer door cocktail. You can make it up to a few days ahead of time and store in the fridge or freezer until ready to serve. Just give it a good shake first and reserve the garnishes until just before serving.

To large batch this cocktail, combine 1 ¼ cup gin, four ounces orange juice, two ounces and orange liqueur then shake or stir over ice. This mandarin orange juice martini pitcher recipe makes up to four servings.

Can I make this an orange drop shot recipe? Yes. This recipe makes about 4.5 ounces of liquid, which is enough for three standard shots. Divide the cocktail evenly between three shot glasses and enjoy with friends!
