I came here from the corpse reviver 0824, the tequila brings power to a gentle beverage. Even when is not a kick in the eye. I don't feel it in the family of the margaritas, Maybe because of the lack of salt, and the predominant flavor of the strega. Interesting.

This was great. Tasted like a lemon meringue tarte. Would definitely do again, but may dial back the Strega a bit or increase the tequila. Wonderful.
