    Shake well.

    Strain into a coupe or rocks glass.

  4. 04

    Garnish with fresh sage leaves.

lightbulb The chef's notes

“Give the sage leaf a gentle slap over the glass before dropping it in, which wakes up its aroma without shredding it into the drink. Fresh lemon keeps the bourbon and sweet limoncello in balance, so squeeze it rather than reaching for a bottle.”
