Jack-O-Lantern Cocktail
The Jack-O-Lantern cocktail is a traditional favorite in October, and adds a warm touch to any festive party with its base of cognac and Grand Marnier. A dash of cinnamon around the rim adds another dimension to this tasty drink.
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 ounces cognac
- 1/2 ounce Grand Marnier
- 1 ounce fresh Limoneira® orange juice
- 2 ounces ginger ale
- Limoneira® Lime twist for garnish
- Limoneira® Orange slice for garnish
Instructions
- Use a wedge of lime to run around the rim of an old fashioned glass.
- Measure the cinnamon onto a small plate, and rim the glass.
- Add ice to a cocktail shaker, and measure in the cognac, Grand Marnier, and orange juice. Shake.
- Add new ice to the cinnamon-rimmed glass, and strain the cocktail over the ice.
- Top with ginger ale.
- The trademark garnish for this delicious Halloween cocktail is the large orange slice, the “pumpkin” garnish. Cut the “stem” from the skin of a lime, and stick it in the middle.
