Really liked this one. I like the idea of the 151 float in place of the rum in the mix.

Hmm, so mediocre. A waste of Cognac, to be honest. All the ingredients sort of turned it into... nothing? If i make this again, maybe I'll forgo the crushed ice?

Made even better by replacing 15ml of rum in the base recipe with a 15ml float of overproof and some Angostura

Wonderful cocktail. The rum and cognac blend together well and the hint of Orgeat adds a hint of almond.

Delish! One of those drinks where, rather than tasting the individual parts, everything melds into something totally different and delicious.

I like a bit of Orgeat and this was very very tasty, sharp and boozy and very drinkable
