Cherry Ouzotini

1 oz. ouzo (an anise-flavored Greek liqueur)

1 oz. citrus-flavored vodka

4 oz. orange juice

½ oz. maraschino cherry juice (more if you like a sweeter drink)

Splash of seltzer or lemon-lime soda

 

Place ouzo, vodka, orange and cherry juices into a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake it, shake it, baby! Pour into martini glass (there’ll be some left over for a second drink), add a splash of seltzer or soda, then garnish with orange slice, maraschino cherry and a mint leaf.
