This recipe details how to prepare a Sparkling Black Cherry Cocktail, combining bourbon, lemon juice, and amaro with a sparkling black cherry beverage for a refreshing and herbaceous drink, finished with a cherry garnish.
Using fresh lemon juice is crucial for brightness. Experiment with different amaros; each brand offers a unique herbal profile that will subtly change the cocktail's character. Ensure all liquid ingredients (except the sparkling component) are well chilled before mixing. Add the sparkling black cherry drink last to preserve carbonation. A large ice cube or sphere will melt slower and dilute the drink less.
