Adjusted Paper Plane
An aperitif before tostadas of black beans and leftover steak, onions, cheese and homegrown lettuce. I really like Paper Plane in theory but in practice it’s way too sweet and slightly too muted for my palate. This is my favorite variation - twice the bourbon, splash of Campari, little more lemon than the original. So, not so sweet and just a little more tart, bitter, and boozy.
2oz Evan Williams bottled-in-bond
1oz Aperol
1oz Amaro Nonino
1.25oz lemon
Splash of Campari (about 2 teaspoons, maybe less, I think of it as adjusting the Aperol)
Shake shake shake. Half into this coupe, half into the freezer for after dinner.
