Old Flame
As Dale DeGroff, this cocktail's creator, says, it's a Negroni softened by fresh orange juice and a splash of triple sec

I juiced a few oranges that were approaching the "use 'em or lose 'em" stage, and then I went to Difford's cocktail finder to look for something to do with them. Avoiding the usual suspects, I decided that the Old Flame looked worth a try. It's a very good drink, with about the same alcohol content as a daiquiri made with two ounces of rum, but far more complexity. This is a much better drink than most drinks that use orange juice.
