The Vaccine

Natasha got married last fall and she needed to work on signature cocktails that fit both her and her husband. A simple cocktail for a simple guy (we’ll tell you about Natasha’s cocktail some other time). We worked through different variations of old fashions, with something to make it it’s own. A good balance of sweet for the bourbon base - this is a very well balanced concoction. It was created in fall 2021 and we thought it might help kill off a few germs hence it’s name.

Directions:

1. Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice

2. Stir for 20 seconds

3. Strain into a rocks glass over a large cube of ice

4. Garnish with orange peel, express oils. Make it extra with a flaming expression.

Ingredients:

• 1.5 oz bourbon

• 1/2 oz luxardo bitter bianco 

• 1/2 oz cointreau (maybe just ¼ oz)

• Dash of orange bitters
