This one takes some advance preparation.  Your first tast is to procure a can of mandarin oranges, drain the juice, and put them into a freezable container (no glass!).  Cover the oranges with Absolut Mandarin and put them in the freezer for at least 12 hours before making this drink.  Trust me, once you master this recipe, your freezer will never want for a tupperware dish full of infused oranges!

• Put mandarin orange slices into a martini glass.
  
• Pour vodka and cointreau into a martini shaker filled with ice.  Shake vigorously.  Strain into martini glass over oranges.
• Add bitters and drink immediately.
