The Black Devil Cocktail is a perfect blend for Halloween or any spooky occasion. Combining the smoothness of white rum with the dryness of vermouth, this cocktail is both sophisticated and eerie. The black olive garnish adds a sinister touch, while the optional orange sugar rim brings a festive twist.
Ingredients
- .5 oz Dry Vermouth
- 2 oz White Rum
- 1 Olive
Instructions
Prepare the Cocktail:
- In a mixing glass, combine 0.5 oz dry vermouth and 2 oz white rum.
- Add cracked ice and stir the mixture until well chilled.
Strain and Serve:
- Strain the cocktail into a chilled cocktail glass.
Garnish:
- Top the drink with a black olive.
- For a Halloween twist, rim the glass with coarse orange sugar. To do this, moisten the rim of the glass with a bit of the vermouth or rum, then dip it into the orange sugar to coat.
Serve:
- Serve immediately and enjoy your Black Devil Cocktail. This drink is sure to be a hit at any Halloween party or spooky-themed gathering.
Notes
- Orange Sugar Rim: To make the coarse orange sugar, simply mix granulated sugar with a few drops of orange food coloring until evenly colored. Spread it out to dry before using.
- Chilling the Glass: For an extra touch, chill your cocktail glass in the freezer before preparing the drink to keep it nice and cold.
- Olive Garnish: The black olive adds a classic touch, but for an extra spooky look, you can use a black olive with a small piece of red pepper stuffed inside to mimic an eyeball.
