Fiore di Francia
From How to Drink French Fluently: A Guide to Joie de Vivre with St-Germain Cocktails [1] by Drew Lazor
Notes
Ezra Star found inspiration in the food encountered along the Italian and French border, where the cuisine does not belong wholly to either culture. Here, Italian artichoke amaro, Cynar, joins forces with St-Germain in a nod to the border zone where elderflower grows freely.

3/4 ounce Cynar
1 dash Angostura bitters
