directions

1. Put ice cubes in cocktail shaker. Add liquors and orange bitters. Shake well, but not too long.

This was more like a Scandalous Mersaydees! lol! When I went to make this, I thought I had sweet vermouth but didn't, so I substituted a sweet German wine. I used blood orange bitters. The first taste was a bit odd, but after 3 sips I was very happy with this cocktail! Will definitely make again. Thanks, KateL! Made for PAC Fall 2012.
