Zesty Basque Sunrise

This vibrant and refreshing highball cocktail, the Zesty Basque Sunrise, is a delightful twist on the traditional Butano from Spain. It replaces the usual orange soda with fluffy orange juice, offering a lighter and more natural citrus flavor. The combination of Patxaran Barañano, Italian bitter liqueur, and a hint of apple cider vinegar creates a harmonious and complex taste profile, perfect for any occasion.
