Method

Cocktail

  1. 1

    Prepare honey syrup

    If you don't have honey syrup ready, combine equal parts honey and hot water (for example 1/4 cup honey + 1/4 cup hot water), stir until fully combined, cool before using. This yields a pourable honey syrup.

  2. 2

    Add bourbon, amaro, sweet vermouth, grapefruit liqueur (or Aperol), honey syrup, Angostura bitters, and orange bitters to a mixing glass or shaker.

  3. 3

    Fill the mixing glass with 8 large ice cubes (enough to chill and dilute properly).

  4. 4

    Stir the mixture vigorously for 20–30 seconds until well chilled and slightly diluted. Stirring (rather than shaking) keeps the texture smooth and clear.

  5. 5

    Strain the cocktail through a fine strainer (or Hawthorne) into a chilled rocks glass over one large ice cube or into a chilled coupe if you prefer served up.

Garnish

  1. 6

    Express the oils of the orange peel over the drink by holding the peel skin-side down about 2–3 inches above the drink and giving it a firm bend to release the citrus oils; then run the peel around the rim and drop it into the glass.

  2. 7

    Optionally, skid a Luxardo cherry onto a cocktail pick and rest it on the rim or drop it into the drink.
