Paper Plane/Naked & Famous/equal parts cocktail riff from our favorite local bar. Works OK with Aperol instead of Cappelletti too, tastes more grapefruit-y.

Muddle sage with rum. Mix other ingredients, very long stir, strain, frozen coupe
Wanted something dry with white overproof rum, and strong floral notes with subtle sweetness.
I Like it dry like listed in the recipe.
But i ve been uping amounts little by little and for a sweeter palate maybe this ratio Will be better:
3/4 gan classico, 1/3 dry vermouth, 1/4 orange flower water.
Both are very different drinks.
Will try sage next infused Overproof.
Used Zamaro which is similar to gran classic, and regular green chartreuse with Dolin dry vermouth, should have had a fatter pour or Zamaro but it was delicious and subdued very good!
I don't think of sage pairing with rum (as least not as well as it does with gin), but this works -- maybe the cognac provides a bridge. I ended up adding 1/2 tsp gomme syrup to open it up a bit, but it also worked without.
Shake rum, 3/4 oz lime juice, chartreuse, syrup, and 6 leaves basil with ice. Double strain into ice-filled highball. Top with soda. Garnish with hard-squeezed lime, slapped additional Thai basil, and dash of bitters.
Stir, strain to lowball with big ice, garnish
