Paper Plane, All Grown Up

A bourbon-forward Paper Plane with Aperol, Amaro Nonino, and fresh squeezed lemon juice. Bright, balanced, and served chilled in a coupe or Nick & Nora.

Bar Chef Notes

Traditionally served in either a coupe or Nick & Nora. The coupe has long carried the rumor that it was modeled after Marie Antoinette’s breast — one of hospitality’s favorite lingering myths. The Nick & Nora, named after the cocktail-drinking couple in The Thin Man films, is favored for its slightly narrower shape and cleaner for actual service.

Traditionally made with Amaro Nonino, though Montenegro makes a softer, slightly sweeter variation.

Either works perfectly.
