The Black Orchid.
Welcome back to Drinks With Diablo.
This is your host, Jöhnny Dîablø,
And today we're making a drink called the Black Orchid.
Now what you're going to need is:
cranberry juice, dark rum,
grenadine, and blue curacao.
We're going to mix it up and throw it down in a cocktail glass.
So let's get started.
One ounce of blue curacao.
One ounce of dark rum.
We're going to —
normally I use the Cruzan Blackstrap rum,
but we're going to use Captain Morgan Tattoo today,
and see how that goes.
A dash of grenadine.
½ an ounce of cranberry juice.
Okay, mix it up and we'll see what we get.
Boom.
And that is dark.
Look at that; it is a nice dark purple.
It looks amazing.
Now, a side note.
Question of the day:
Did anybody ever read the Neil Gaiman Black Orchid
series that he did for Vertigo comics?
Or even before that, did you ever read Black Orchid comics?
Back in the day for DC Comics.
How does this taste?
Let's find out.
Fruity, amazing,
this drink is the bomb!
It's got slight notes of orange from the curacao.
The rum and the cranberry are coming through.
This is a nice, fruity drink,
and I think it's going to have universal appeal.
The Black Orchid is a kick-*** drink,
perfect for your parties.
