The Pledge

Chill the cocktail coupe in advance by filling it with ice or placing it in the freezer.

In a mixing glass, combine the rye, herbal liqueur, and Averna.

Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters to the mixture.

Fill the mixing glass with ice, then stir until the mixture is well-chilled and properly diluted.

Strain the cocktail into the chilled cocktail coupe, ensuring a smooth pour without ice.

Finish by garnishing with a twist of lemon peel, expressing its oils over the drink before placing it on top or inside the glass.
