averna black manhattan for all you black friday psycho paths


averna!
an apertif that gained popularity about 3 years ago. Hi! we're late to the party :)

rinds of citrus, roots & herbs all soak in alcohol and natural caramel is added in the end to create averna!
Those clever Italians! adore adore adore them & their booze making ways.

  • 2 oz rye
  • 1 oz averna
  • dash of angostora
  • dash of orange bitters (or get crazy with your additional aromatic bitter choice!)
  • shake and strain into a martini glass.

This is WAY better than shopping with a bunch of over weight crazies!

I prefer a real bing cherry but you may use a maraschino if you please
