This cocktail, which appears in Kat Odell’s Day Drinking: 50 Cocktails for a Mellow Buzz (Workman Publishing Company, $15.95), was created by Erick Castro of San Diego’s Polite Provisions.

Combine all the ingredients in a shaker, and muddle to break down the orange.
Add ice cubes to fill the shaker three-quarters full, cover, and shake to chill for about 15 seconds.
Strain over ice into a rocks glass.
Garnish with an orange slice.
