Boulevardier

The Boulevardier is essentially a Negroni with bourbon replacing the gin, created by American writer Erskine Gwynne in 1920s Paris for his magazine of the same name. The swap of base spirit transforms the drink entirely, adding warmth and vanilla richness from the bourbon while maintaining the beautiful bitter-sweet interplay of Campari and vermouth.
