I tried with Simple Syrup (1 sugar to 1 water), in my opinion, its enough sweetness for this cocktail. (I think, rich syrup is too much).

adding sugar seems unnecessary, aperol is sweet enough

Excellent with either cucumber or just orange slices.

This is a little on the sweet side for me. Next time maybe I’ll switch out the aperol for Campari. Do love the muddled cucumber though

Peter Bohrmann Bartender's Guide, which was always a bargain book in America 15 years ago, has this Bluegrass Recipe:
In a shaker, with ice: 1 oz bourbon, 1 oz lemon juice, 3/4 ox lime juice, 1/2 oz blue curacao, 1/2 oz Southern Comfort. Shake, pour into highball glass, garnish w a maraschino cherry and lemon peel. I made this version and it was much like a dry whiskey sour, although more medicinal. Color: cerulean blue (teal). A drop extra of S Comfort improved the flavor. Dry, Boozy

Maybe I over muddled, but the cucumber overwhelmed the other flavours. I'll give it another go though, as it was still good.
