BLOOD AND SAND COCKTAIL
This long forgotten Prohibition-era cocktail is named for the 1922 movie starring Rudolph Valentino. It is the movie which, on his death bed, he stated he'd like to be his legacy. Try this drink straight up, and toast one of the most revered actors of silent film.

BLOOD AND SAND
The Blood and Sand counters the notion that Scotch whisky can't play well in a mixed drink: Without that deep, vital smokiness, this drink would be a much less exciting proposition. In the 1930 "Savoy Cocktail Book," Harry Craddock's recipe calls for equal parts Scotch whisky, cherry brandy, Italian vermouth and orange juice. I prefer different proportions that allow the whisky and juice to predominate - and I especially like it when fresh blood orange juice is available, both for color and flavor.

BLOOD AND SAND
Eben Freeman, bartender of Tailor restaurant in New York City, developed this version of a classic cocktail that mixes whiskey, vermouth, brandy, and orange juice. Instead of cherry brandy, Freeman generally uses beer: either Echt Kriekenbier from Brouwerij Verhaeghe or Quelque Chose from Unibrew. And instead of regular orange juice, Freeman creates his own orange foam, which gives it a unique texture. Note: Freeman's ingredients are not commonly found in supermarkets. We have provided an online source, below.
