I don't understand why recipes such as the Italian Margarita (https://www.diffordsguide.com/cocktails/recipe/2695/italian-margarita) call for using Iseo Triple Sec when you only rate it two stars and there are so many higher rated triple secs. is there a reason for this?

Ahh thanks Paloma, that makes sense somewhat, (I do have some Iseo, and it isn't great, I have been using Cointreau instead) however, I have never made an italian margarita (yet) I had marked it as wish list. I therefore hadn;t modified the "diffords recommended" ingredient to my "prefferred brand"
Do you have to do this on a cocktail by cocktail basis as I would prefer to globally have the Difford brand recommendation UNTIL I manually substitute in the "Personalise" section
All the best

Hi Richard, whichever triple sec you have in 'your ingredients' will show as the preferred brand in the recipes you view. Do you have Iseo in 'your ingredients'? If so, and you remove it you'll see the recipe change accordingly.
