Red Carpet
Source: http://cocktailvirgin.blogspot.com/2008/01/red-carpet.html
Ingredients
- 0.75 oz Amaro
- 1.5 oz Rye
- 0.5 oz Aperol
Instructions
Kit found this in the end-of-night log they keep at the Standard: it's where new drinks that seem interesting end up, and sometimes migrate onto the actual print menu. Nicely spicy, but the Aperol gives a sweetness that stands up to the herbals in a way you wouldn't expect from a wussy 22 proof liqueur. Good followup to my previous drink.
