Add ice, preserves, bourbon, triple sec and orange juice to a shaker and shake vigorously for 15 seconds.
Pour into serving glass with a few ice cubes and top with a splash of club soda. Garnish with orange slices and enjoy. Repeat for more drinks.
Triple sec provides orange liqueur flavor and sweetness. You can substitute with Cointreau or omit it, though you may want to add a touch more orange juice to balance the drink.
Raspberry is recommended, but any fruit preserves work well. Strawberry, blackberry, or even fig preserves will alter the flavor slightly while keeping the same technique.
Add preserves to the shaker first, then gently press with a muddler to break them down slightly. You don't need to completely dissolve them—some texture is fine. Add bourbon and other ingredients after.
Yes, multiply all ingredients by the number of cocktails needed. For batch preparation, mix the preserves, bourbon, and triple sec in advance, then add fresh citrus and soda per drink when serving.
Yes, all ingredients are plant-based. Confirm your chosen preserves contain no animal products, and use vegan-friendly club soda if needed.
