Murray Stenson typically uses Old Overholt rye whiskey in this classic Bénédictine cocktail. If you use bourbon or another brand of rye, Stenson suggests adjusting the amount of whiskey to your personal taste.
2 oz. rye whiskey
1/2 oz. fresh lemon juice
1/2 oz. Bénédictine
Tools: shaker, strainer
Glass: cocktail
Pour ingredients into a shaker and fill with ice. Shake well for 10 seconds, then strain into a chilled glass.
