Tangled Up

By DreiFromBK

Washington, DC, bartender Derek Brown gives his lemony drink a pleasantly bitter boost with Suze, a French aperitif. "It's refreshing," he says, "but you get a little more than just sweet and easy."

Ingredients

• 2 ounces oloroso or cream sherry
• 1/4 ounce Suze
• Ice
• 4 ounces bitter lemon soda or San Pellegrino Limonata
• 1 spiral-cut lemon twist for garnish

Preparation

Step 1

In a chilled highball glass, mix the sherry and Suze. Add ice and stir well. Stir in the lemon soda and garnish with the lemon twist.
