  • Nice. Used IKEA rhubarb cordial (40% rhubarb) and buffalo trace. Try with fancier bourbon. — ★★★

I substituted Giffard Rhubarb Liqueur in place of the rhubarb syrup, using the same amount. Worked well.

Basically a slight riff on an Old Fashioned. I only get a bit of rhubarb and amaro doesn't seem to be doing much but adding sweetness. I added Spanish bitters which gave it a bit more zing. Despite my whining it's a solid Old Fashioned.
