Ingredients

  • 1 white sugar cube
  • 1 slice fresh orange
  • 1 tablespoon orange liqueur (Grand Marnier or similar, or Curacao if you want a drier mix)
  • 1 glass champagne or 1 glass dry sparkling wine
  • 3 drops Angostura bitters

Method

  • Place the sugar cube in a wide glass ( brandy glass is ideal).
  • Drip the bitters onto the sugar.
  • Pour the orange liqueur around the sugar.
  • Place the slice of orange on top of the sugar.
  • Gently dribble the champagne over the orange slice so that a clear layer is visible between the liqueur and the wine.
  • Drink - it gets subtly more lethal as you go down the glass.
  • The diameter of the glass needs to match the diameter of the orange slice for best layering effect.
