After my work shift two Thursdays ago, I returned to my Food & Wine: Cocktails collection to discover an unmade gem. In the 2013 edition, I came across Josh Durr's Lumberjack Negroni that utilized maple syrup as the sweetener to the dual American whiskey base. Once prepared, the Lumberjack Julep gave forth a mint aroma that led into maple richness and malt on the sip. Next, rye spice and mint on the sip was followed by maple and additional mint notes on the finish.
