Kimchi looks skeptical but it's good.

2 oz bourbon

1 oz orange liqueur

1/2 oz sweet vermouth

1/2 oz (I used 3/4oz) lemon juice

Shake all with ice.

    Named after the racehorse, whose funeral in 1947 was a nationally televised event.

    I mean I have almost everything here. The lemon is the only thing I ran out of. Thing is I have almost everything here because I don't like that orange stuff. And I'm not the biggest fan of vermouth. So I really struggle to get that stuff gone without throwing it out 😅

    I'm gonna find me some lemons, wish me luck.

    Good luck! It's mostly bourbon, and was sweet even with the increased lemon, you could safely reduce the amount of orange stuff and it would still be plenty sweet.

    Grande Garrone is an orange liqueur made with cognac, I like it, or you could try making your own (not for this round, I mean in general) to get one you like. Could burn some of the peels to get a more complex flavor, or use tangelos, customize it.

    Cointreau! That's what I have. Bought it for Crêpes Suzette, and that's fine. But I never found out what else to do with it.

    Thanks!

    I just gave this recipe a shot. It's not bad. I added a dash of Angastora bitters about halfway through; I'm not sure if it improved it, but it didn't hurt it. I don't think this will make it into regular rotation, but I'm going to add it to my recipe book.

    I have done Irish whiskey and Cointreau with a dash of bitters many a time, interesting to add the vermouth and lemon juice
