I've never loved orange juice in cocktails, it's not sweet enough nor is it acidic enough. So, I started subbing in orange liqueur and it’s SOOO much better. Here is a modified version of a cobra's fang that utilizes orange liqueur in place of its original orange juice.

Editor's Note

Overproof Demerara rum meets orange liqueur in this punchy, refined riff. The absinthe rinse and Falernum add a layer of spice that transforms the classic Tiki profile.
