  • La Nima Añejo Tequila – 1½ oz / 45 ml
  • Sweet Vermouth- 1 oz / 30 ml
  • Angostura Bitters®– 1 dashes
  • Garnish- Orange Peel Twist and Luxardo® Cherry

Instructions: Combine all ingredients into a glass mixer. Add ice, stir well for 30 – 45 seconds and strain into a small coupe glass. Express natural orange oils from peel over top of cocktail then discard peel and garnish
