Naked on a Plane

Though the name of this cocktail might play to one’s anxieties, its flavor is wonderfully mellow. This light and fruity concoction of Barndiva’s bar manager, Charles Rodenkirch, is an expert blend of two popular cocktails—Naked and Famous and Paper Plane—and the perfect papaya-hued platform for a liberal sprinkling of seasonal blooms to garnish.

Ingredients

¾ ounce El Silencio Mezcal
¾ ounce Nonino Amaro
¾ ounce Aperol
¾ ounce Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur
¾ ounce lemon juice

Instructions

Add all ingredients to the shorter mixing tin of a Boston shaker and fill with ice. Cover and shake for 10 seconds. Double strain into a martini glass. Garnish with seasonal edible flowers, such as zinnias, roses, marigolds, chrysanthemums or borage blossoms.
