Jackson Cannon's Adriatique

Amaro Montenegro and Aperol extend the flavors of fresh orange juice so naturally you could imagine you're just sipping the nectar of the best oranges you've ever encountered.

Jackson Cannon's Cold Spring Cocktail

This winter sour from Jackson Cannon balances a boozy cognac edge with smooth maple syrup and Meyer lemon. Though there's as much maple as lemon, it's not at all sweet, just warming and aromatic.

Campari Sanguinea

When warm days are chased by chilly evening breezes, I crave autumnal things like nubby sweaters, terra cotta earth tones, and crisp glasses of pomegranate juice with a splash of delightfully bitter Campari. To lighten things up for brunch, a little grapefruit juice does the trick.

Orange, Rosewater, and Mint Sparkler

Bright and floral, the orange rosewater sparkler is made with fresh-squeezed orange, muddled mint, and rosewater.

The Jasmine

Don't let the color fool you. With its gentle pink hue, the Jasmine may look as prissy and cute as a Hello Kitty armband, and its unassuming appearance and sprightly color has no doubt appealed to many drinkers of the once-ubiquitous Cosmo. But unlike that candy-colored alcopop, the Jasmine is all business, its alluring tint supplied not by the Cosmopolitan's innocuous red cranberry juice but by the intensely garnet Campari, an Italian aperitif famous for its powerful bitter flavor.

Great Gatsby

This cocktail is light, bright, and easy. And, as Chef Frank Stitt says, it's "shockingly good—it makes you feel on top of the world, kind of like Gatsby."

Drinking in Season: Blood Orange Daiquiri

Looking for a little pick-me-up after the holidays, I decided a daiquiri—which is traditionally made with lime juice, rum and sugar—would be the perfect candidate for a little winter experimentation. The blood orange juice gives the cocktail a lovely red hue and brings a bright flavor to the drink.

Pamplemousse Cooler (Vodka-Cucumber Cocktail With Grapefruit LaCroix)

You'll be cool as a cucumber sipping this vodka drink, which gets a delicate vegetal flavor from muddled cucumber and a soft sweetness from elderflower liqueur.

Blood Orange Juliet

A classed-up version of the thick, frothy orange shake of mall food court fame.

Cosmopolitan Cocktail

This Cosmopolitan may well be the best vodka sour around.
