Method

  1. Prepare the Rim: Pour a small amount of raspberry & orange salts onto a plate. Run a lime or blood orange wedge around the rim of your chilled martini or coupe glass. Gently press the outer edge of the glass rim into the salts to create a vibrant, flavorful ring.
  2. Infuse & Mix: Add the vodka, triple sec, cranberry juice, fresh lime juice, muscovado sugar, and hibiscus flower/petals to the Garnish Club shaker jar.
  3. Chill: Fill the shaker jar with ice. Secure the lid tightly and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the shaker is ice-cold.
  4. Serve: Double-strain the mixture into your prepared, salt-rimmed glass.
  5. Final Garnish: Garnish with the included dried cranberries and a slice of the lime or blood orange garnish.
