Subbed a few mls of rose syrup (mostly because it was in the drinks cabinet and I couldn’t be arsed to go to the pantry). Was (unsurprisingly) a little too sweet but not unpleasant. Will try again to compare and contrast with the proper recipe.

Tried again with the proper mix. Drier and more suitable for an aperitif. Didn’t get a great deal of the rose - might try a mix of both
