The boulevardier is a variation on a gin-based negroni. The whiskey offers a deeper flavor than the gin.

• 1 ounce whiskey (Bourbon or rye)*
• 1 ounce sweet vermouth
• 1 ounce Campari

Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass. Add ice and stir. Pour into a coupe and garnish with cherry.

*If you like a less bitter drink, increase the whiskey to 1 1/2 ounces and cut each of the other ingredients to 3/4 ounce.
