Comments

Just made this as I was given some Calisaya. I made three modifications, the first two out of necessity and the third of desire. 1st - I did not have Fernet on hand so I doubled the vermouth (Dolin). 2nd - Also did not have Bitterman's Burlesque so I used CRUDE "Lindsay" (Pecan, Magnolia, Habanero). I tasted the drink at this point and found it pretty good. 3rd - I added a teaspoon of fresh lemon juice. The whole drink came together and is now rather good. I will make this again, and try to have the correct ingredients on hand...and a lemon just in case :)
