Just a drop (or two) of chilli tincture doesn't go astray here. One of our favourites.

This recipe has appeared out of nowhere since I bought my Amaro Sfumato a couple weeks ago. Finally made it today. Reading the comments, I went with Clement 80 proof rhum agricole. I hereby declare this the only way to go when making this. Near perfection. (29 Dec 2023, 11:31a)

I'm very oddly reminded of the various blueberry flavoured cereal bars (those nutri-k? maybe? ones. or something.) from the late 00s UK. Definitely tastier that's for sure; a lovely and complex and bitter and fruity drink with a hint of smoke.

Nutrigrain! that was it.

Very intriguing cocktail, with quite the evolution. It starts out citrus, followed by a hint of sweet maraschino, and ends with dry, smoky rabarbaro. Definitely a sipper. I quite enjoyed it, but I might try to swap out the base liquor (I used Plantation 3 Stars) for something a bit more assertive, that can stand up to the rabarbaro. Maybe go all in on the smoke and switch to 1.5 tequila/0.5 mezcal?

Remade with 1.5 Oz of Afrohead rum and 0.5 of OFTD. This allowed the rum to leave more of an impression while keeping to the spirit of the drink. I considered Smith & Cross, but I don't think the funk would have worked as well in this context. I also tried a bit with Pamplemousse instead of Maraschino, and that took away some necessary complexity.

Enjoyed this. Good balance of bitterness, sharp fruit and sweetness. Very good aperitivo for an Autumn evening.
