I made this cocktail because I have an opened bottle of bianco vermouth and a few navel oranges that are so small you can put them in a Mexican juicer. I think this would be the perfect cocktail to serve with Sunday brunch. It's clean and not unlike a small juice glass of fresh orange juice. For brunch, you might want to use 2/3 of the stated amounts and put it in a Nick and Nora glass. Probably not good to use anything but fresh orange juice.
