Liquid Sunshine 12 Months of Cocktails — Whiskey Bar at Sky & Vine

The Inspiration

A Cocktail Coaster

Sometimes cocktail napkins and coasters are just everyday essentials. And sometimes they are condensation-ringed, serendipitous callings from the cosmic unknown — inviting you to take inventory of your complicated, wonderful day. Archer knows the magic in all of it. So, as a muse to those moments, we invited our talented bar teams to create 12 Months of Cocktails inspired by our beloved napkin and coaster series.

Whiskey is liquid sunshine.

The Recipe

Perched six stories above Napa, looking out upon the valley on a sunny day. That is the inspiration for this refreshing cocktail. Particularly smooth and tasty, you’ll immediately feel like you are basking in the summer sun. 

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces bourbon
  • .75 ounces lemon juice
  • .25 ounces Aperol
  • .25 oz Amaro Nonino
  • .25 oz Tempus Fugit Violette
  • 2 dashes of grapefruit bitters

Directions

Shake all ingredients and strain into your favorite coupe glass and garnish with a lemon wheel.

Cheers!
