Yes, with extra Angosturabitters and coffeeliqueur (my local made coffeeliqueur is rather light), I enjoyed this one.

A nice change from my usual tipple. A couple dashes of Angostura certainly lifts it.

A delicous hot-weather/poolside cocktail. I used Mr. Black, since the cola and bourbon bring so much sweetness on their own - very nice and easy upgrade from a regular bourbon and coke.

Genever adds its own complexity to this version of the classic Holland House. The sugar syrup is my 'optional' addition, but for me it's essential.

While gin might lead this Negroni, port wine rounds and sets it apart from less noble Negronis.
