Orange Slammer
Came up with this original recipe the other night but then I didn’t have a name for it so I did some research and found that there’s a very similar cocktail using most of the same ingredients called “Alabama Slammer”. This recipe could be a cousin of that so I named it Orange Slammer. In my recipe, I used Sobreo's Valencia Orange. It is citrus forward and mildly sweet, but my favorite part is that it has a nice bitter aftertaste and it gives almost a warming sensation at the back. It gave this non-alcoholic drink some complexity. This was then accentuated by the subtle kick from Ritual's gin alternative and topped off with almond flavors from Beckett's Non-Alcoholic Amaretto.
For those of you who haven’t tried Sobreo, I highly encourage that you do. Their mixers are made with botanicals that add complexity into the drink which is usually lost when making mocktails due to the lack of alcohol.
