Bittersweet and gin-laced, this is one of the first Last Word riffs to emerge from the Chartreuse shortage in 2022

Saw your comment (again) and had to revisit. Still five stars! Maraska worked just as well as Luxardo for the maraschino and I used Edinburg Gin's Seaside, Dolin dry and Aperol this time.
Looking for a bottle of Luxardo Aperitivo. What, if I might ask did you use?

I used Beefeater gin, Luxardo Apervito, Tribuno Extra Dry, and my recent acquisition, Lazzaroni Maraschino, which I greatly prefer over the Luxardo Maraschino. It's just such a softer, more mellow taste I find. I haven't tried Maraska yet, but I ought to.

Must try the Lazzaroni, seeing it available locally. Will keep an eye out for the Tribuno. Beefeater is my usual go to. Thanks for the reply.
