This is an excellent drink. Sweet, but it doesn’t overwhelm my taste buds. I used a much cheaper creme de banana because it’s all I had, but I wasn’t disappointed at all. The Strega and Pisco blend well!

Simon, thanks for publishing my variation! It’s very cool to see it on here. I came across this page while searching for Strega cocktails and thought “oh that sounds good” not realizing at first that it was my recipe!

Banana killed everything else. No pisco, no tang, no strega. Rename Golden Banana?

Hmm, I just remade it and I thought the flavors of each ingredient were quite balanced. If anything, I get more Strega than banana. Did you use Banane du Bresil? I can imagine an artificial banana liqueur being overpowering.
