SOLERNO BLOOD Orange
Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur is a vibrant, premium Italian citrus spirit made from sun-ripened Sicilian blood oranges, crafted to capture the pure, intense flavour of freshly squeezed fruit in every pour. Created by Lesley Gracie (the master distiller behind Hendrick’s Gin), Solerno blends blood orange flesh, essential oils from the peel and a touch of Sicilian lemon distillate for a complex, layered profile that balances bright acidity with indulgent sweetness.
In the glass, Solerno appears almost clear, but it is presented in a distinctive deep crimson bottle inspired by Italian glass design and the colour of blood oranges. On the nose, it offers rich blood orange, lifted by red berry notes, orange blossom and a hint of lemon zest. The palate is smooth and citrus-forward, with juicy blood orange, gentle sweetness, subtle herbal tones and a clean, lingering finish.
Bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) and made in small batches using traditional copper pot stills, Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur is extremely versatile behind the bar. Use it:
- As a fruity twist in a Gin & Tonic or Spritz
- As a premium substitute for triple sec or Cointreau in Margaritas and Cosmopolitans
- In Italian-style aperitifs with soda water and ice
- Neat or on the rocks for an intense, long-lasting blood orange experience
