Instructions
- Fill a cocktail shaker to the brim with ice.
- Pour the bourbon, Campari, sweet vermouth, lemon juice, and simple syrup into the shaker.
- Secure the lid on the shaker and vigorously shake for about 15 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is frosty and the ingredients are well combined and chilled.
- Strain the cocktail mixture into a glass filled with fresh ice.
- Top the cocktail with soda water, and gently stir to combine, making sure not to over stir as this can dull the fizziness.
- To finish, curl an orange peel into a twist and garnish the drink.
- Serve immediately and savor the balanced, bubbly flavors of your homemade Boulevardier Fizz.
Tips
- For a drier cocktail, reduce the amount of simple syrup. If you prefer a less bitter drink, consider reducing the Campari and adding more sweet vermouth. Remember, cocktails are about balance, so feel free to tweak the recipe to suit your taste.
