Dan’s top tips
1. How do you get the layered sunset look in the glass?
Our recipe shakes all ingredients together in a cocktail tin, so it won’t produce a layered effect. To do that, mix the vodka and schnapps together in the glass over ice, and then add the orange juice and carefully add the cranberry juice on top, pouring it over a spoon. We have a guide to layering cocktails that might be helpful.
2. Can I make a non-alcoholic version of this recipe?
Absolutely. Simply leave out the vodka and schnapps, or replace them with non-alcoholic versions, and you get a fresh, fruity alcohol-free version.
3. Can I get everything for this recipe delivered today from Dan Murphy's?
If you live in a metro area and the drinks are stocked in your local Dan’s, then you can expect same-day delivery. Another option is to order click and collect, which will also save you time. Always look for the best My Dan’s offers when ordering your drinks.
