Paper Plane
A citrusy and bitter sour built around whiskey, with the classic proportions and service that make the Paper Plane endure.
“Darling, a Paper Plane this polished makes the rest of the room look underdressed.”
WHY THIS DRINK WORKS
The Paper Plane works because bourbon, Aperol, Amaro Nonino meet in deliberate proportion. Keep the method shaken, use fresh ice, and give the final garnish enough attention to finish the aroma without distracting from the drink.
