Ingredients
- ¾ ounce bourbon
- ¾ ounce Aperol
- ¾ ounce amaro (see Notes)
- ¾ ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice (~ ½ lemon) (see Notes)
Instructions
- Chill a Nick & Nora or coupe glass in the freezer for a few minutes or add ice cubes to it. Discard ice cubes prior to filling the glass.
- Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add bourbon, Aperol, amaro and lemon juice. Shake for about 10 seconds or until well chilled.
- Strain into prepared glass.
Notes
* This cocktail was used with Amaro Nonino Quintessentia which can be difficult to find. Both Amaro Averna and Amaro Montenegro make good substitutes.
* Before squeezing the lemon, heat it in a microwave for about 20 seconds and then rub it back and forth on the counter top. This easy two-step process results in more juice per piece of fruit.
