Sometimes you chase an idea. Sometimes it runs you over. I wanted an herbal backbone to cut through plum wine’s rich sweetness. Xtabay bitters stepped up. Primitiva bitters and bourbon backed it up. Sweet vermouth played cleanup. End result? A smooth, layered sip I’m calling the Shadow Orchard. File under: drinks worth losing track of time for. Thank you to BG Reynolds and Shadow Ridge Distillery for the bitters and bourbon.

Stir until well chilled and strain into a chilled glass.
Editor's Note
Plum wine and dual bitters transform this bourbon base into a layered, fruit-forward sipper. A sophisticated, slow-paced drink for the end of the evening.
