Yield 2 drinks

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 1/2 ounces bourbon
1 1/2 ounces Amaro Nonino
1 1/2 ounces Aperol
1 1/2 ounces freshly squeezed grapefruit juice

Steps:

  • Combine the bourbon, Amaro Nonino, Aperol and grapefruit juice in an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Shake vigorously, then pour into two glasses.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Always use fresh citrus fruits, herbs, and juices for the best flavor. Don't use pre-made sour mix or simple syrup, as they can be bland and lack flavor.
  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling your ingredients before making the cocktail will help to keep it cold and refreshing. You can also chill your glass by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes before serving.
  • Use quality spirits: Don't skimp on the quality of your spirits. Using good-quality spirits will make a big difference in the taste of your cocktail.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately: Accurate measurements are important for making a balanced cocktail. Use a jigger or measuring cup to measure your ingredients.
  • Don't over-shake: Over-shaking your cocktail can dilute it and make it watery. Shake your cocktail for just a few seconds, until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Garnish your cocktail: A garnish can add a pop of color and flavor to your cocktail. Try garnishing your cocktail with a citrus twist, a sprig of mint, or a sprinkle of salt.

Conclusion:

The Paper Plane cocktail is a delicious and refreshing cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It is a well-balanced cocktail that is not too sweet or too sour. The combination of bourbon, Aperol, Amaro Nonino, and lemon juice creates a unique and complex flavor that is sure to please everyone.
