Review:
Konstantinos' original recipe called for dushi buttons in place of sugar syrup. Sadly, while commonplace in his local market in Messinia , Greece, dushi buttons are a rarity in South London, England, hence our substitution.
History:
Adapted from a recipe created in 2015 by Konstantinos Kollias at Armyra By Papaioannou, Messinia, Greece.

seems to be broken.
Sadly, I don't have this particular Liqueur. Can I approximate its flavour by using, say, 15ml of Green creme de Menthe and 7.5ml of Green Chartreuse or is there some other substitution you could suggest?
