I loved Elf on the Shelf, which also makes use of fino ad St. Germain, but this Dutch Master doesn't work for me. It may be that vodka is the wrong spirit, compared to tequila. It may also happen that tonic water fails to bring flavours together, whereas grenadine ad triple sec worked wonderfully in EotS. In any case, I won't repeat this one.
