History:

Adapted from a recipe created in 2021 by Umberto Oliva at Bella Milano Bistrot in Milan, Italy. I've swapped the 5ml simple syrup in Umberto's original recipe for 10ml honey syrup, plus I've added drops of saline.

A very decent although convoluted riff on a Naked and Famous. Kind of curious why it didn't retain the lime, though.

hello mariusz ,simply because in Italy we have excellent lemons. I always prefer fresh local ingredients. Limes are imported from Brazil or Mexico.

A worthwhile application of more than the usual number of ingredients to get a lovely cocktail for a summer afternoon. I substituted St. George Spirits Bruto Amaricano for the Cocchi Americano and it’s a cocktail we’ll worth mashing the Add To Favorites button.
