This orange coloured drink combines sweet and sour flavours in a most interesting and grown up way

As monasterium is now discontinued any suggestions as to what to use instead? Have tried with a mixture of green chartreuse (no yellow at the moment) and St Germain, then with Bénédictine; both acceptable and complex drinks as I think the original is meant to be but feel I am missing something more citrus. Off to France soon so will try it with some Genepii ?

Hi David. Like you, I reached for Chartreuse and a mix of Green and Yellow. I'm sure I still have some Monasterium somewhere but lost amongst all my other scattered bottles. I've amended the recipe accordingly.
