Just tried the 2oz rum, 1/2oz triple sec, 1/2oz Galliano, and 3/4oz lime recipe and was overly sour. Which leads me to wonder if your Galliano ‘L’Autentico’ or ‘Vanilla’? I also found 60ml of rum a tad boozy so settled at 1.5 rum, .5 tripe sec, .5 Galliano L'Autentico, and .5 lime juice.

Interesting, and thanks for trying my version. I live in tropical Asia and use limes from my garden. They may be a tad sweeter than cooler climes' citrus. But for sure I used authentic Galliano.
