Method

POLO LOUNGE CLASSICS

  1. 1

    Chill glass

    Place a rocks glass or a chilled coupe in the freezer for about 5 minutes to ensure a cold serve.

  2. 2

    Combine ingredients

    In a mixing glass, add 45 ml Buffalo Trace Bourbon, 30 ml Sweet Vermouth, and 22 ml Aperol.

  3. 3

    Add ice and stir

    Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir gently for 20–30 seconds to chill and dilute slightly.

  4. 4

    Strain and serve

    Strain the drink into the prepared glass. If serving on the rocks, strain over a large ice cube; for a straight-up serve, strain into a chilled coupe.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Express the oils from an orange twist over the drink, run the twist around the rim, and drop it into the glass as garnish.
