La Danza

Jessica King | Knoxville, Tennessee

Brother Wolf uses Lurisia’s Chinotto soda, made from the fruit of myrtle-leaf orange trees, in the refreshing La Danza, complementing the bubbly drink with Cocchi Americano Rosa, fresh citrus juices and orange oil. Chinotto “offers an almost root beer or cola flavor [to cocktails], with natural coloring, lots of effervescence and a touch of pulp,” says King.
