Notes
Pro Tips
- If fresh persimmon is unavailable, you can substitute the persimmon syrup with a spiced syrup for a similar autumnal vibe.
- Stirring the cocktail instead of shaking keeps the texture smooth and enhances the bourbon’s flavor.
- For a more aromatic garnish, express the oils from an orange peel over the drink before adding it as a garnish.
