No Orgeat so subbed 7.5ml of Disaronno. Will try walnut liqueur. A lovely, refreshing dram.

Excellent, it's got a pomegranite vibe. A little extra gin doesn't hurt.

I couldn’t quite put my finger on exactly what was familiar about this cocktail, but I think you’ve nailed it! It tastes like there’s fresh pomegranate juice in the mix for sure. I’m about half way through my first one and have realised I completely forgot the absinthe rinse, but why it now when this particular other woman is absolutely pomegranate perfect as she is?
