Do you mean Strega in place of Green Chartreuse?

If is the Indonesian Rhum, and the original say it goes for Yellow Chartreuse and this goes for Strega... then I use the Strega and goes for plain simple Bacardi. I was afraid since sometimes the ones rhumie are just plain daiquiris and not very last word. This is not. I love it. maybe I would'nt do it again -but so little time and so much opportunities to shake my coctelera. is very surprising and lovely. I will continue my labor of knowing all the last words in the world.
