Helpful Tips
- Quality Ingredients Matter: Since this cocktail highlights a few key ingredients, using high-quality bourbon and fresh lemon juice will make a noticeable difference in flavor. Choose a bourbon that you enjoy sipping on its own, as its character will shine through in the cocktail.
- Adjust to Your Taste: Feel free to tweak the proportions to suit your palate. If you prefer a sweeter drink, add a little more maple syrup. For a more bitter profile, increase the amount of Campari or amaro. Experimenting with the ratios can lead to your perfect version of this cocktail.
