The Mildly Antagonistic
Rye, Campari, lemon & a single Luxardo cherry — bite up front, affection underneath
Mildly antagonistic — the name he gave the relationship between him and his guest
Why this cocktail? Bitter on top, generous underneath — the mildly antagonistic stage in liquid form.
The Story
Jacob's stage style is named badly on purpose. The bite is real; the affection underneath is real too. This rye sour with Campari is that texture in a glass: sharp and bitter on the entry, softened by lemon and sugar, finished with a Luxardo cherry because the executive deserves something sweet for sitting through it.
