Paper plane recipe at International Bartenders Association

The paper plane is an IBA official cocktail.[1] Developed around 2007 by Sasha Petraske and Sam Ross of Milk & Honey for their former colleague Toby Maloney's Chicago bar The Violet Hour. The recipe is a riff on a Last Word, which is a riff on the classic corpse reviver #2.[citation needed] The cocktail consists of equal parts bourbon whiskey, Aperol, Amaro, and lemon juice. The cocktail's name is a reference to the M.I.A. track "Paper Planes", which was apparently a guilty pleasure of Petraske's.[2]
