1 oz Aperol
1 ds Islay Scotch, Laphroaig

Notes

Robert Hess created the Petrucio to highlight Aperol. Referencing Aperol's origin, he named it for the protagonist in Shakespeare's Taming of the Shrew.

Comments

That first ingredient should be an American Gin, not vermouth.
Hess used Voyager brand Gin in his Small Screen Network video.
