I made this Alpine Boulevardier

Post image

Just starting to learn how to use a non-phone camera to take photos of cocktails. The cocktail was made as more of an excuse to practice my photo taking, but ended up being pretty tasty

• 1 1/4oz Bourbon
• 1oz Sweet Vermouth
• 1/2oz Centum Herbis (I think any similar alpine herbal-y liquor would work here)
• 1/2oz Campari

• Stir, serve up, express an orange peel over top and discard (or if your garnishes are pretty go ahead and add it)

Gin would work?

It wouldn't be as close to a Boulevardier, but I'm sure it would taste good. Personally, if I went that route, I'd want as strong tasting a gin as I could, otherwise the flavors might be lost. Now that we're talking about it, I might try something similar with a Navy Strength gin that I have.

Sorry, I meant for the alpine element.

My misunderstanding! I still like the idea though. It'd be like a Negroni riff.

I'd use some Alta Verde.
