Comments

Minor curation; changed 'PTD' to 'PDT' in the reference.


I am quite fond of this one having made it several times with some cheap DeKuyper Kirschwasser in an old bottle I have. I usually don't care for Kirschwasser cocktails, but the flavor is just right here. I haven't even tried the better Kirschwasser in this one yet.


Did not like very much at all with New Liberty's American Picon instead of CioCiaro, which I've never had. Next time split that 1.2 of CiaCiaro into 1/3 American Picon, 1/3 PF curacao, and 1/3 Seville orange bitters. Liked much better, even if it's probably pretty different than the recipe.
