I made it not sweet at all, but It was sort of watermelon sugar song: watery, no body anywhere. I went for Amaro Averna, It has smtg lacking of substance. So is very adecuate is a crop top, not a full t-shirt, maybe is just I no longer have the body to portrait it. I will abstain in the near future of it and will go for full shirts. thank you. I am still in the continuous voyage of tasting all the last word variation. To boldly drink where no man has gone before...

I thought the equal parts version was a bit too sweet for my tastes. I upped the gin, dropped the amaro and pamplemousse, and kept the lemon the same. Much more to my liking.

I thought this was very nice. Zippy and fresh with some floral complexity. I'll try the original with equal parts next.

Vodka may fortify this cocktail, but it's led by the interplay between fino sherry, banana liqueur and sweet 'n' sour.
