Blod & Skar

Blod & Skar is a Blood and Sand riff from Sean Davey at Broder in Portland, Oregon. Where the original focuses on the sweet flavors of cherry and orange, this incarnation leans into the herbal side of the drink. Aquavit takes center stage with a warm caraway flavor that matches well with a spice-forward sweet vermouth – like Carpano Antica Formula, Davey’s recommendation.

Ingredients
- ¾ part Aquavit
- ½ part Scotch
- ½ part Cherry brandy
- ½ part Sweet vermouth
- ½ part Orange juice
Instructions
Shake all ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail or coupe glass. Garnish with an orange twist (flamed, preferably).
