The Orangini shakes London dry gin and limoncello with passion fruit, calamansi, aloe juice and vanilla syrup, served long over ice. Expect a silky, chilled cascade with tangy brightness up front, a soft aloe cushion mid-sip, and a lingering citrus-oil snap from the twist on the finish.

Tips

Fine-strain after shaking so the passion fruit and calamansi purée leave no pulp in the glass.
Shake hard and with plenty of ice — the purées and aloe juice need real dilution to keep the drink from tasting syrupy.
Express the orange twist directly over the finished drink so its oils settle on the surface rather than being lost in the shake.

FAQ

What cocktail has an orange peel garnish?

The Orangini is finished with an expressed orange twist, released over the glass just before serving so its citrus oils sit on the surface of the drink. It's shaken with gin and limoncello, then served long over ice in a highball glass.
