Ingredients

Showing the cocktail. Switch to Mocktail for the alcohol-free version.

2½ oz (74 ml) bourbon
½ oz (15 ml) curaçao
2 dashes Angostura bitters
ice
long lemon twist, to garnish
2–3 Richberry halves

How to Make It

Stir and strain
Stir the bourbon, curaçao and bitters with ice in a mixing glass, then strain into an old-fashioned glass over fresh ice. With one large ice cube, you can build it straight in the glass and stir 5 or 6 times.
Add the twist
Squeeze the lemon twist over the drink to release its oils, run it around the rim and drop it in.
Add the Richberry twist
Just before your first sip, chew 2–3 Richberry halves gently and let them linger for about 30 seconds. Discard any pit, then taste how the sour notes turn sweet.

Richberry changes the taste, not the drink: a cocktail may taste softer, but it is just as strong. Please enjoy it responsibly.
