I made my first Blood and Sand around 2016 or so, and even then, well into the cocktail boom, it was somewhat difficult to find a bottle of Cherry Heering.

If Negronis aren’t your thing, we still recommend giving this one a try — its subtle bitterness is the perfect option for those who tend to steer clear of red amari. Bursting with red and dark fruit, clove spice, bitter citrus peel, and a bouquet of botanicals, if you blinded us with this cocktail, we’d think it was freshly stirred up.
