Description

A Scorpion Bowl typically has four or more liquors and is super sweet. This sweet-enough version uses rum and brandy for richness and amaretto to fill in for hard-to-find orgeat.

Ingredients

3/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1 1/2 ounces gold rum
1 ounce brandy
1/2 ounce amaretto liqueur
1 1/2 cups crushed ice

Directions

1 Combine orange juice, lime juice, rum, brandy, amaretto, and 3/4 cup ice in a cocktail shaker. Cover and shake until well chilled. Pour unstrained into a wide glass mug or bowl. Pile remaining 3/4 cup ice in center. Serve with 2 straws.
