Instructions
  1. Start with a handful of ripe summer cherries. I used eight, as I wanted bright, cherry-forward flavor.
  2. Next, de-stem and pit the cherries and add them to a shaker. Combine with the simple syrup and muddle until the cherries are thoroughly crushed.
  3. Add the lemon juice, Aperol, and bourbon. Fill your shaker with ice, and shake for a full 10 seconds.
  4. Strain into a tall glass over new ice and top with sparkling water. Add a straw and a sprig of fresh mint
