Kentucky Lemon

0

Stirred bourbon and limoncello with a couple of dashes of orange bitters, so the sweet lemon sits against the bourbon's oak. Leo's Italian Social in Charlotte, NC, created it, and The Cat and Lizard recreated it in 2023.

Kentucky Lemon comes from Leo's Italian Social in Charlotte, North Carolina. After the restaurant stopped serving it, The Cat and Lizard recreated the drink, though without the original recipe to compare against, it is unclear how close this version is.
