How to make:

Pour all ingredients into ice-filled glass and lightly stir.

Lemon zest twist

Comment:

A refreshing aperitif with a mouth salivating bitterness. Makes a Spritz seem bland.

About:

Created in 2017 by Doh Sullivan at the Le Syndicat, Paris, France, who says of his drink, “I was looking for a nice bitter and refreshing drink with a hint of complexity. The gentian of the Suze marries perfectly with the wine and quinine flavour of the Byrrh.”
