Directions

Using a sharp knife and a cutting board, remove a long slice of lemon skin, leaving as little pith on the peel as possible. Gently curl into a twist and set aside.
Combine bourbon, light Italian bitter aperitif and lemon juice in a cocktail shaker with ice.
Shake until combined and strain into a coupe glass.
Twist the lemon peel over the drink to express the oils, then add as garnish.
