The Boulevardier

We all have that friend who's ready for anything - he can open a beer with his shoe, navigate by the stars and always has a pack of cards handy. That's our friend Joel. Joel came with us on our road trip to Great Basin National Park for the first time. He's just the kind of guy you want around when the van breaks down on the highway, when you're looking at a billion stars, when you need a nightcap to warm you from the inside out… True to form, Joel came prepared. He calls it The Boulevardier, we call it Joel's Lighter Fluid. The Boulevardier aka Joel's Lighter Fluid 2 parts bourbon 1 part Campari 1 part sweet vermouth Combine ingredients in a shaker (or do what Joel did, put ingredients in a to-go coffee mug… just make sure it's clean!). Take a lighter to the orange peel to warm it up, then twist peel to loosen up the oils. Serve up and garnish with the orange peel. Enjoy with good company and a raging campfire.
