1. 01

   Pre-chill one clear coupe and drain exactly one small dark cocktail cherry for garnish.

2. 02

   Measure the bourbon, sweet vermouth, apricot liqueur, lemon juice, grenadine, and orange bitters into a shaker.

3. 03

   Fill the shaker about three-quarters full with solid cold ice and seal it securely.

4. 04

   Shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the fruit-led bourbon sour is cold and properly diluted.

5. 05

   Fine-strain into the chilled coupe so the finished coral drink is clear of pulp and ice fragments.

6. 06

   Place the single cherry carefully at the center of the surface and serve without another garnish.
