“And don’t fight Delia,” Morgenthaler added. “Make her a drink. The one with your syrup and her favorite bourbon. Call it the Lamplight Resolution .”

“Show me your setup,” he said.

A distributor offered him a “craft” raspberry syrup in a beautiful bottle—half the work, twice the shelf life. Leo tried it. It tasted like jam that had forgotten its own name. He refused.

Just deep, jammy, crimson truth.
