Well, I'm actually out of London Dry but this didn't stop me from trying this one. I decided to go for a 2:1:1 ratio so I used 22.5ml for both crème de cacao (Bols) and triple sec (Cointreau), and the gin I used was Roku.
You can't go wrong with chocolate and orange together, and they are definitely the first thing I could taste, but the gin follows right behind and leaves a very pleasant aftertaste that lingers in your mouth.
It's simple and good, has a nightcap cocktail vibe. I suppose the brands you use will make this cocktail very special or very weird, but experimenting is fun, so I'm definitely coming back to this one.
