Upper Cut Cocktail

Jump to Recipe

The Upper Cut cocktail is a drink built with orange liqueur (Cointreau), cachaca, grapefruit juice, lemon juice, and angostura bitters!

Upper Cut Cocktail Info

Cointreau, at its 40% ABV, is the star of this cocktail! We almost use double the amount of Cointreau compared to the cachaca. This mix reverses the usual roles of the spirits for a fruit-forward cocktail you usually find where the Cointreau is only a flavor addition, not the main character.
