Made a riff on a drink called a Clara Bow. Couldn't make a Clara Bow because I didn't have grenadine or mint. Friend of mine misunderstood what I said, confused it with The Nutcracker character, and said my drink should be called The Rat King.

So it shall be named.

Here are your ratios:

The Rat King
2 parts Chambord (basically subbed this for the grenadine)
2 parts St Germain
3 parts lemon juice
6 parts bourbon (100 proof or stronger)

Pour all ingredients over ice, stir until chilled.
Strain over a single large cube into a rocks glass.

Like a whiskey sour with a softer edge. I'm still tweaking. Yellowish-brown color. Could probably use a garnish. Open to suggestions/feedback.
