I made a lemon oleo for my syrup. Tried the drink twice with Ricard Pastis. First time around I found 2-3 shots (assuming 30 ml per) the sweet spot as far as toning down the dulce while maintaining the expressive character of the ingredients. 4 shots starts to thin the flavors, but it's still tasty. Second time, I decided to add a dash of Fee Bros Lemon Bitters to enhance that flavor and maybe tame some of the sweetness. Amazing but not surprising how potent that product is... Overall, I found this to be an enjoyable drink. I do love simple recipes.
