Shake with ice, strain into cocktail glass, garnish with blood orange wheel (optional)
The specific calls worked very well (Johnnie Walker Black and Cocchi di Torino) and I keep getting requests to make more of these from family members who are not typically keen on scotch--hence, the inclusion of "More" in the name, as well as it being a nod to the Moro.
This is the first year my Moro blood orange has produced, despite a record hot summer. The fruit is almost blackish purple inside (the photo taken under warm lighting truly doesn't do it justice.) The flavor is more muted in orange with a broader red raspberry that blends seamlessly with Cherry Heering and the cacao/raisin of the Cocchi.
Variation on the historical Blood & Sand (ca. 1930 in Savoy) but using Moro blood orange.
