Cherry Blossom
Shake, strain, straight up, cocktail glass
Nice pink color. Fred Yarm on Cocktail Virgin suggests that Luxardo is more vibrant than Stock. Using a bit less lemon and liqueur when substituting might be appropriate.

- Went with 2 dr cherry bitters. Next time, 1 dr cherry, 1 dr Peychaud's.
- Plum bitters
- I think subbing a dash of cherry bitters would improve the flavour and bring it more in line with the theme while retaining the beautiful pink hue.

I found my source reference and added it. You can read the comparison between Luxardo and Stock. I've never tried Stock, so I can't comment, but using a bit less of both Lemon and Luxardo might be a good idea. I did raise an eyebrow at a full ounce of Maraschino! I plan to try this myself soon. With that much lemon, I think it might be best shaken.
