The Boss
Amaretto brilliantly enriches bourbon. I tried adding a couple of dashes of bitters but found myself preferring the simplicity of just the two ingredients

Adapted slightly with 2oz bourbon, 3/4 oz amaretto, 1/4 oz luxardo maraschino. It was really delicious! After a hard day at work I’m calling this “Screw the Boss” ;)

I'd adapted this as well to these exact specs and called it "Glory Days" as a nod to "The Boss" Bruce Springsteen. Very tasty.

Excellent adaptation! Since there was Luxardo Maraschino in the cocktail, it absolutely needed a Luxardo Maraschino cherry as a garnish!
