Blood Orange Whiskey Cocktail

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 ounces whiskey or bourbon {I used Bulleit Bourbon}
• 1/2 ounce Amaro Nonino Quintessentia
• 2 1/2 ounces freshly squeezed blood orange juice (about two blood oranges)
• 1/4 ounce freshly squeezed lemon juice (about a quarter of a lemon)
• 1/2 ounce agave nectar
• 2-3 dashes orange bitters
• Sprig of thyme

Instructions

1. Juice the citrus and set aside.
2. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the whiskey, Amaro, blood orange juice, lemon juice, agave nectar, and bitters.
3. Shake until nicely chilled. Strain and pour into a cocktail glass filled with fresh ice.
4. Finally, squeeze the thyme sprig a few times to release its aroma and garnish!
