Instructions
- Mix the bourbon, vermouth and Campari together in a cocktail shaker with ice and stir until very cold. Strain into tumbler glasses filled with ice. Add orange peel garnish and serve immediately.
- To Add Smoke:
- Set up smoking gun per package instructions (fill with wood chips - I recommend using cherry wood chips, but apple or hickory also work well. The smoking gun listed here comes with chips included.)
- Pour bourbon, vermouth and Campari into a a cocktail shaker with ice and stir until very cold. Then pour into a container with a tightly-fitting cork, ideally a glass decanter.
- Insert the hose of the smoking gun into the mouth of the decanter. Light the gun to fill the decanter with wood smoke. Remove the hose, cork the decanter tightly, and leave it sealed for 6-8 minutes. Then pour (drink & smoke) into ice-filled cocktail classes. Add orange peel garnish and serve immediately.
