Review

It's not a mistake, this cocktail does indeed contain a whopping 45ml (1½oz) and 30ml (1oz) flavoured sugar syrups. Yet, in a larger-than-life way, it is balanced and drinkable, although I wouldn't order a second.

Spectacular! This takes the Trinidad Sour formula and wonderfully elevates it towards the tropical/tiki. I have been looking for drinks like this, so unlike the review description, I would definitely order a second.

Too (too) much Ango, and not nearly enough of anything else??!?... What's going on here?... I'll have to investigate... And I was just now moving on with my life...
