Instructions
Blood Orange & Lemongrass CoronaRita
- Start by making the Lemongrass Simple Syrup. (See instructions below) Let it cool before you make the CoronaRitas.
- Place all ingredients into a cocktail shaker. Shake until thoroughly combined.
- Pour over ice. Add Coronita. (The trick here is to flip it over and shove it into the drink as fast as possible. Be quick!)
- Serve immediately.
Lemongrass Simple Syrup
- Chop each piece of Lemongrass into several chunks. Roll them with your knife while applying a little pressure to break them. This helps release their oils/flavor.
- Put all ingredient into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and cool. Store in an airtight jar or bottle.
