  • I don't get the enthusiasm. Disjointed, extremely dry, and very small. I gave up on drinking this and made this into a highball. Still not that great.

Comments

Tried it with an inexpensive anejo, and really enjoyed it. Second batch, added a few more drops of rose water to the shaker, and about 1 t of campari. Amazing color and better balance. Great warm weather cocktail.
