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.

I tend to prefer the equal parts
