An agave spin on the Boulevardier.
A variation that spotlights two flavorful but unexpected ingredients.
This pairing of bitter Cynar with the extra kick of higher-proof rye is a classic 50/50 composed shot combo.
Stephen Cole’s modern classic uses Cynar as the foundation of this bold yet bright drink.
The bitter notes in Cynar are rounded out by maraschino and agave in this frothy amaro sour.
The julep with a Cynar base shows that this spirit can stand up for itself against most any flavor.
Tonic doubles down on the bitter qualities of both ingredients.
Orlando Franklin McCray's highball is a clever rum and tonic riff.
Annie Williams Pierce's Coffee With Giuseppe takes inspiration from the Bitter Giuseppe, a modern amaro classic.
