A bit tart but pleasantly so, quite enjoyed it. I used white grapefruit juice by the way.

I do not understand how this is the recipe.

The true version by Kiyoshi Imai is:
Salted rim and add cherry
//
1 maraschino cherry
//
45 ml silver tequila
//
20ml yellow chartreuse
//
15 ml line cordial
//
1 bar spoon slow gin
//
Add tequila, chartreuse and lime cordial to shaker and once combine appropriately, strain into coupe.. slowly layer the slow gin to infuse into the drink, not as a layer. ENJOY!!!

Thanks, Peter. Looks like a quite different and unconnected cocktail, apart from sharing the same name.

Me and my girlfriend found it too tart. Added about 1cl simple syrup and it tasted much more balanced.

Agreed. I added a little agave syrup (to go with the mezcal) for the same reason, and now it's perfect.
