Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Start by preparing dry orange slices for garnish. Arrange the slices on a parchment‑lined tray. Preheat the oven to 110 °C/90 °C with convection/gas ¼ and bake for 2 hours. They can be prepared a day ahead and stored in a container.

2. 2

   Pour the orange juice, vodka and brown syrup into a cocktail shaker, add a handful of ice and shake well. Strain into two large wine glasses with extra ice. Top with cava and garnish with the dried orange slice.
