The Raven

The Raven is a dark and mysterious cocktail that I've adapted from other recipes. I like this one because it contains ingredients that are more common in bars than those found in other Ravens. The key to this drink is the layer which is rather easy to obtain in this mix as the blue shaken mix is much lighter than the Chambord and they rarely break the layers unless stirred.

Ingredients:

  • 1 oz vodka
  • 1 oz rum
  • 1 oz blue curacao
  • 1/2 oz Chambord

Preparation:

  1. Pour the vodka, rum and blue curacao into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
  2. Strain into a highball glass filled with fresh ice.
  3. Slowly pour the Chambord over the back of a bar spoon so it floats on top.
