  • 0.5 oz
    Grey Goose

    or similar orange-flavored vodka

  • 0.5 oz

Instructions

Fill a highball glass with ice. Combine the orange juice, Aperol, orange-flavored vodka, Grand Marnier, Lillet Blanc, orange bitters, lemon juice, and salt directly in the glass, then stir gently until the mixture is well-chilled and combined. Top with Italian orange soda. Express the oils from an orange peel coin over the surface of the drink, then discard the peel. Garnish with a fresh orange wheel.

About

A maximalist riff on the Aperol Spritz from Naren Young that layers six or more orange expressions—juice, liqueur, vodka, Lillet, bitters, and soda—into a surprisingly restrained and elegant highball. The result is a citrus-forward, effervescent sipper that celebrates nuance over bombast.
