Name that drink.

A Negroni is to a Valentino as a Boulevardier is to an X?

Or maybe it's a twisted Manhattan? Anyway:

50ml Bourbon
12.5ml Carpano Antica
12.5ml Campari
Stirred, Martini glass, orange twist. s'good tho'

Kinda twisted.

As you explore and navigate around non-euclidean, n-dimensional booze space, there are clusters as Regan points out. 2 Spirit plus 1 Vermouth plus Bitters is one. There should be a bunch of possibilities where you replace the vermouth and bitters with half and half vermouth and Amaro. eg 4:1:1 Bourbon, Carpano, Campari

1:1:1 Spirit, Vermouth, Amaro is another. Negroni, Boulevardier are well known but there must be others.

Hmmm. Most of them probably should be avoided! eg Tequila, Noilly Prat Ambré, Aperol? J&B, Dubonnet, Fernet? nuh, huh.
