Review:

A fairly dry, complex cocktail. Generous sweet vermouth and orange juice make the Bronx less bitter and fruitier than many of its era, but still challenging to delicate modern palates. A classic that needs a trio of something extras to give it zing;
1. Freshly squeezed orange juice
2. Orange bitters
3. Orange zest twist

Variant:

Bronx (Difford's recipe)
Bloody Bronx - with blood orange juice
Golden Bronx - with egg yolk
Improved Bronx - with mandarin juice
Silver Bronx - with egg white
Luigi Bronx - with tangerine juice, triple sec, and grenadine
Income Tax cocktail - with two dashes aromatic bitters
Satan's Whiskers Straight - with cognac orange liqueur
