Method
Prepare and measure
- 1
- 2
Measure all spirits, vermouths, liqueur, lemon juice, bitters and simple syrup so they are ready at the bar station.
Mixing
- 3
Build and stir
Fill a mixing glass two-thirds full with fresh ice. Add 2 oz bourbon, 0.75 oz sweet vermouth, 0.25 oz dry vermouth, 0.25 oz maraschino liqueur, 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice, 0.25 oz simple syrup (optional), 2 dashes orange bitters and 1 dash Angostura bitters.

Strain & finish
- 5
Discard ice from the chilled serving glass. Double-strain the cocktail into the glass using a julep or fine mesh strainer to remove tiny ice shards and any pulp from the lemon.
- 6
Express the oils of the orange peel over the surface by holding the peel skin-side down about 3 inches above the drink and giving it a firm bend to spray oils, then run the peel around the glass rim and drop it into the cocktail.
- 7
Garnish with one maraschino cherry on a pick rested across the rim or dropped into the drink.
Serve
- 8
Serve immediately. Recommend sipping slowly to appreciate the layered vermouth, maraschino and citrus notes against the warm spice of the bourbon.
