First of May, or the Abbott City

To commemorate the First of May, 2011 (and 1945), I created this bittered sling variant:

2 oz Death's Door white American whiskey
2 barspoons honey syrup (equal parts honey and water)
2 barspoons Campari, floated.

Stir the whiskey and honey with ice, then float the Campari, for effect.  Serve with a stirrer and a lemon twist.

White whiskey because it's clear and American.
Honey syrup because it's oh, so sweet.
Campari because it's bitter and blood red.

Justice is served.
