A very warm orange cocktail in a glass. The rim is covered in a dark red salty substance and a blood-red-orange wheel hangs precariously.

We were tasked with creating a cocktail that our pal Glenn would drink without knowing what was in it. He accurately guessed the majority of the ingredients that we thought he would (the non-alcoholic one, because he's a respectfully sober fellow on the norm).

This was actually a modification of a cocktail called the Matador which you can find in Tierney and Brod's book!
