Garnish: Exactly one very short narrow orange zest twist

1. 01

   Pre-chill a clear coupe and cut exactly one very short narrow strip of fresh orange zest.

2. 02

   Measure the London dry gin, Calvados, blue curaçao, dry vermouth, fresh lemon juice, and rich simple syrup into a shaker.

3. 03

   Fill the shaker about three-quarters full with solid cold ice and seal it securely.

4. 04

   Shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the blue apple-and-gin sour is very cold and properly diluted.

5. 05

   Fine-strain into the chilled coupe so no citrus pulp or small ice fragments enter the glass.

6. 06

   Express the orange oils over the surface, retain exactly the compact twist at the rim, and serve without another garnish.
