Fairbanks No.1
Apricot liqueur dominates this cocktail but dry vermouth, dry gin, lemon juice, and dilution save it from excessive sweetness

As per the Review section: strong on the apricot, but enough interest from its glass-fellows to keep it interesting with some really lovely richness and herbal flavours. Had the dregs of a bottle of Tanqueray 10 for some extra gin kick. Recommended.

A splash of amaretto could also sit nicely here if you’re still finding the apricot a bit much.

Good suggestion, alternatively you could use Orgeat instead.
