Ingredients

Strawberry & Blood Orange Simple Syrup

  • 1 pint Strawberries
  • 1 Blood Orange
  • 1 Orange
  • 1 Cup Water
  • 1 Cup Sugar

Strawberry & Blood Orange Fizz

  • 1 1/2 shots Strawberry & Blood Orange Simple Syrup
  • 1 shot Strawberry Absolut Juice Vodka
  • 1 8.45 oz can Strawberry Perrier
  • Splash of Lemon juice
  • Ice
  • 1 Blood Orange sliced

Instructions

Strawberry & Blood Orange Simple Syrup

  • In a small saucepan combine 1 cup of water, 1 cup of sugar, and stir together.
  • Cut both the blood orange and regular orange into quarters and squeeze all the juice from both into the saucepan.
  • Cut the stems off of the strawberries and then cut them in half or quarters if they are big. Put all of the strawberries in the saucepan as well.
  • Place the pan on the stove and bring to a boil stirring occasionally. As the liquid begins to boil, a foam will form on top. Scoop as much of this foam off as possible and discard. After the syrup has come to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  • Once the 15 minutes is up, pour all the liquid through a mesh strainer and into a bowl. Do not press any liquid out of the strawberry pieces as this will cause a cloudy syrup. Discard remaining strawberries and wait for the syrup to cool.

Strawberry & Blood Orange Fizz

  • Once the simple syrup is cool, in a small bar glass filled with ice, pour in 1 1/2 shot glasses full of the syrup. Next, pour in a shot of Strawberry Absolut Vodka, a splash of lemon juice, and fill the rest of the glass up with Strawberry Perrier. Garnish with a beautiful slice of blood orange either on the side or in the glass. Give the drink a quick stir and find a nice spot of sunshine to sit in & sip & enjoy!
