So this is basically a White Lady with a bunch of extra stuff. I don't like those, but thought I'd give this a shot. Way to much orange. Doubling the amount of red bitter turned it from mediocre to decent. Reducing the curaçao and using a spicy gin might improve this. I used Red Door Gin, Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao, and Inferno Bitter. I'll still give it a 4 because my wife thought it was great.

Lovely cocktail. Just got a bottle of Lucano for the Beelzebub and found this recipe. I used Dry Curacao. Perfectly balanced sour, bitter, and fruity richness.

Enough ingredients for it to be a Tiki drink. You would never expect this combination of ingredients to make a drink that tastes so fruity. Well-named!

Also, for a drink that’s almost all booze, it’s deceptively light and fruity. “Dangerous!”, my wife says.
