Then you’ll love a Boulevardier with whiskey!
Maybe you love a good Negroni, but you’re also a big fan of whiskey.
Perhaps you love theManhattan, but want to try something different (but not too different).

What Kind of Whiskey Should I Use?
Some recipes call for bourbon, others for rye whiskey.
So which should you use?
For bourbon, Bulleit, Knob Creek, and Four Roses are all great choices.
For rye, I like Bulleit or Sazerac.
Rittenhouse and Old Overholt are solid budget-friendly choices.
What Kind of Vermouth Should I Use?
Carpano Antica is the dream here, but Cocchi Vermouth di Torino is also a nice choice.
Stirring allows ice to melt into the drink.
It also softens the bite of the alcohol without making the drink cloudy, like shaking would.
Add ice and stir for 30 seconds.
Allow to sit for 30 seconds, and then strain into a rocks glass with ice.
Garnish with orange peel.
