Ingredients
2 oz Maker’s Mark Bourbon
1 oz Dolin Vermouth Rouge
1/2 oz maple syrup
2-3 dashes Angostura bitters
1/16 tsp monosodium glutamate (MSG)
2 sprays Alice & the Magician Autumn Bonfire cocktail aromatic mist
Luxardo cherry garnish
Directions
Stir bourbon, sweet vermouth, maple syrup, bitters, and MSG with ice. Strain and pour into a chilled coupe glass. Add cherry and spray with the aromatic mist.
Notes
This was rather smooth considering the alcohol content! The aromatic spray is spot on. I like sweeter drinks so I went heavier on the maple syrup; some recipes call for 1/4 oz. I’d be curious to try it with and without the MSG to compare.
