Smoke in the Woods | The Straight Up

Mix equal parts Knob Creek (or other Bourbon), Campari and Carpano Antica in a large glass jar or other suitable storage vessel. Add about 1lb of 100% Natural Hardwood Charcoal, cut into smaller pieces if needed. Let sit in a cool, dark place for 7-10 days. Start tasting around day 5 and see what you like best. Strain the mixture through a coffee filter multiple times (use a fresh one each time) until most of the sediment has been removed. This is the most painful part of the process, but the end product will be more than worth it.
