Having Negroni as one of my go to cocktails it’s more or less inevitable not to expand my palate with a Boulevardier. Last night was my first time trying this. Having substituted the gin for bourbon, why not substitute the orange peel for a cherry as well? Let’s. The bitterness was surprisingly held back here. I went with a Woodford Reserve and was not expecting the bitterness to be dampened this much.

Add all ingredients to a mixing glass with ice and stir. Strain into a rocks glass over fresh ice. I missed the orange flavor. :)

Editor's Note

Bourbon replaces gin in this classic riff, adding oaky depth to the bitter-sweet interplay of Campari and vermouth. A cherry garnish provides a subtle, dark fruit finish.
