Hazardous ingredients

Giffard Orgeat Syrup is potentially hazardous to those with allergy or intolerance.

Review:

This deep lurid reddy-brown cocktail won't be to everybody's taste but that's only to be expected with one-and-a-half shots of bitters. However, if you like cough candy then perhaps this cocktail is for you.

History:

Created in 2009 by Giuseppe Gonzalez at Clover Club Bar in Brooklyn, USA and inspired by the competition-winning Trinidad Especial by Valentino Bolognese.
