Black Bottom

A complex six-ingredient shaker drink: brandy, Cointreau, blackberry brandy, a dash of gin, lemon juice, and orange juice. Everything is used in small proportions, creating a layered citrus-and-berry cocktail where no single ingredient dominates. The gin adds a floral note that lifts the heavier brandies.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 oz brandy
  • 1/4 oz Cointreau® orange liqueur
  • 1/4 oz blackberry brandy
  • 1 dash dry gin
  • 1/2 oz lemon juice
  • 3/4 oz orange juice

Instructions

  1. Pour the brandy, Cointreau, blackberry brandy, gin, lemon juice and orange juice into a cocktail shaker half-filled with ice cubes.
  2. Shake well, strain into a cocktail glass, and serve.
