    I thought I had a reasonable cocktail vocabulary, but these posts are like reading another language. The forgotten romance language.

    I have never even heard of Falernum, but (after googling) it sounds divine! Besides, how could I turn down a drink that is Rum, other things, shame?

      That description was what got me to order the cocktail.

    Could I substitute whisky (or whiskey) for the rye in the Boulvardier?

      I don't know. I always think experimentation is a good thing! The Boulvardier itself is a Negroni with rye instead of gin.
