Rhett Butler Cocktail Ingredients

Before we dive The Rhett Butler Cocktail recipe, let’s take a look at some of the ingredients for this delicious beverage.

But if you’d rather skip right to the recipe, click here.

Southern Comfort

Southern Comfort is an American Fruit-Flavoured Liqueur that was created in 1874 when bourbon was mixed with honey, citrus and various spices.

It’s delicious and mixes well with pretty much anything and we have a whole list of other Southern Comfort cocktails to prove it.

Grand Marnier

Grand Marnier is an orange liqueur. It’s made by blending Cognac, with bitter orange, and sugar.

It adds a boozy, yet luxurious orange flavour to any cocktail and works well in this Rhett Butler cocktail recipe.

Lime Squeezer

30 millilitres or 1 fluid ounce of lime juice is one hell of a lot of lime juice to squeeze out. Trust me – I’ve been there.

Here’s a little hack – don’t even attempt to squeeze those Lime’s by hand. Use a squeezer. It’ll save time, get more bang for your…lime, and help you sleep better at night. Well, maybe that last part only applies to me – making a load of these at a party I’m hosting in the New Year.
