Nonino | Boubon | Aperol | Lemon

Modern

The Paper Plane is a modern classic cocktail made with equal parts bourbon, Aperol, Amaro Nonino, and fresh lemon juice, shaken with ice and served up in a coupe glass, often garnished with a lemon twist. It's known for its balanced sweet, sour, and bitter profile, with a bright, citrusy flavor and a beautiful orange-red hue. Created by bartender Sam Ross in 2008, it's a variation on the equal-parts "Last Word" cocktail formula. Fun fact: named after the hit song by M.I.A.
