Ingredients

2 0z Brandy

1 teaspoon Lemon Juice

1 teaspoon Maraschino Liqueur

1 dasy Angostura Bitters

1 orange

Directions

Frost glass by rubbing a small piece of orange rind along the rim of the glass to moisten, then dip in sugar

Peel the rind off of 1/2 of the orange, in 1 long spiral strip.

Fit the orange peel into the top of the glass

Add a lump or two of ice to glass

Shake all ingredients with shaved ice

Strain into prepared wine glass

Note: if too tart reduce lemon juice, and add simple sugar to taste

Note: This is a presentation drink.. sure to impress with the huge piece of orange peel inserted into the glass. (see picture)

Modifications: Rum or Gin can be substituted for Brandy.

Even early in the morning, this one sounds wonderful...have not heard of a "crusta" but I will attempt one now that I know what it is - sounds very refreshing and perfect for the hot summer. Thanks!

I'm with krum, this is a new one on me, but sounds fabuous. Can't wait to see your posts of smashes, scaffas, juleps, flips, fizzes, daisies and cobblers. I've also never hear of a scaffa or daisie or cobbler drink. Can't wait to see some. Keep em coming. You have my 5 on this one.
