Black Widow's Bite
Essentially a Screwdriver blued (not quite blackened) by blue curaçao and served straight-up

I made this cocktail exactly as the recipe states and then afterwards followed up by making the same cocktail again, but with 15ml of blue curacao instead of 22.5ml and found it to be less sweet but for the better personally, which also for garnish I think it’s just meant to say a black salt rim and not orange juice and black salt rim

I used an orange to moisten the rim so the black salt stuck to the sticky juice. Hence, orange juice and black salt rim.

Oh I’m such a fool, cause of course that’s why it says to garnish with orange juice and black salt rim, since if I’m being honest I didn’t end up doing garnish, due to me not having any black salt, although I could of used regular white salt but this cocktails called a Black Widow’s Bite not a White Widow’s Bite
