Clementine Sour – Monica Mixes

Ingredients

• 1.5 ounces kentucky bourbon Your favorite high-end whiskey will work - I always use Eagle Rare for mixed whiskey drinks.
• 0.5 ounce fresh lemon juice
• 0.75 ounce spiced brown sugar syrup Too much of this stuff would make this cocktail too sweet, but it adds such a delicious finish and depth of flavor it can't be left out.
• 1 ounce clementine orange juice Juicing a clementine is like milking a cat! They don't yield much but you can probably get an ounce or more from each fruit.
• 1 clementine peel ribbon Make your ribbons before you juice the fruit -- trust me! You can also just use a peeler and make a fat peel but it's not as elegant.
• splash amaretto Less than a tablespoon per glass will be plenty--you use it as a wash before you pour the drink.
• 1-2 dashes angostura (or similar) bitters
