Review

Bittersweet with rich jammy apricot and a touch of tart citrus freshness, this cocktail teeters on being sweet but manages to remain balanced.

Merlet's Lune d'Abricot in perfect bitterweet balance with the Averna. Apricot darkened by the amaro, lifted by the citrus. (Choose your apricot brandy wisely. De Kuyper's apricot brandy, for example, would make a very different, much sweeter cocktail)

Very satisfying! Reminiscent of a fruit juice with a soft, boozy zing, this is a great warming drink with layers of flavours. Just right on a cold and snowy afternoon. ??

Maybe just a touch on the sweet side, but very enjoyable.
