This for me is exceptional made with Liquore Strega, Cocchi Americano Bianco, lemon/lime 50/50, and lime zest twist plus a generous dash of Absinthe. Corpse Reviver and a Last word

The lemon/lime split was an interesting idea and in this necessitated by running out of lemon. I did a 50/50 split of Strega and genepy, also Cocchi Americano. Felt like it needed some of the sweetness added back in so 2.5 ml triple sec. Some really interesting flavours coming out. I used to do an “instant icecream “ with orange, lemon and lime juice and rind and fresh cream. Reminds me of that.

Triple sec seems a promising addition addition. Must try. Favorite of mine: In a frozen glass. Old fahsioned or larger. Two small scoops Häagen-Dazs vanilla bean (or other authentic no emulsifer ice cream). Half fill two to one white grapefruit /Pom pomegranite juice, splash of lime. Top with tonic water. Careful it foams like a rootbeer float. Also any bitters you might be inclined to add. Plus vary the juices. Apple. Orange. Good with booze in it also.

Wow that’s the super super balanced version. I’m out of the Lillet so yours sounds like a fun variation!
