Originally shaken but perhaps better stirred. Simple but no less tasty for it.

This would be a good after dinner cocktail. I found it a bit sweet so will try with a little less Grand Marnier. Essentially a GM martini.

After looking at the ingredients, I wasn't sure about this one -- but I was pleasantly surprised and delighted by this cocktail. Given the power of the gin carrying this mix, an interesting gin will definitely have an impact on the final drink. I used a lovely Swedish pink gin, and the cocktail was astounding.

Great spirit forward cocktail. The gin and orange merge well together. A great old-fashioned cocktail. Not sweet.

This was in my opinion improved by the
Addition of an oz of orange juice to take the edge off what is otherwise a very booze-forward mix.
