VELVET REBELLION
A rebellious, red-tinged bourbon cocktail with a velvety body and a bright lemon finish. Sweet Vermouth adds dark herbal and wine-like depth, while a small touch of grenadine rounds out the fruit. An original house variation inspired by the Scofflaw, but deliberately richer and softer.
Ingredients
- 2 Oz. (60 ml) Bourbon
- 3/4 Oz. (22.5 ml) Sweet Vermouth
- 1/2 Oz. (15 ml) Fresh lemon juice
- 1/8 Oz. (3.75 ml) Grenadine syrup
- 2 Dashes Angostura bitters
Method
- Chill a Nick & Nora glass. Add bourbon, Sweet Vermouth, lemon juice, grenadine and Angostura bitters to a shaker with ice. Shake until well chilled, then double-strain into the glass. Garnish with an expressed orange twist or a cocktail cherry. Grenadine is deliberately restrained: begin with 1/8 Oz. (3.75 ml), adjusting only after tasting.
