The Charming Foxhole
Nick Caruana

This bitter and refreshing amaro-laced tequila cocktail from Aaron Joseph of Wit and Wisdom in Baltimore, MD gives a nod toward the Negroni. It's a light and polished cocktail with a smooth tequila base. Amaro Nonino and Aperol bring bittersweet orange and rhubarb flavor to the combination.
