Renewed my acquaintance with this drink this weekend and the diet is out of the window and I will chastise myself on Monday. I have added a couple of dashes of orange bitters too "orange out". I also have Fentimans Valencian orange tonic. Will try with this to see if the drink becomes too bitter. I do not have too sweet a tooth so this may work. Will report back on my findings. If this works could it be a Flucky Duff?

I vaguely recall Warninks Advocaat being on TV at Christmas Time when I was a kid & I decided to try it for the first time in some seasonal cocktails. My version of the Fluffy Duck keeps all the ingredients & ratios the same except I substituted Fever Tree Blood Orange Soda which not only gives the drink an added orange zing but a lovely pale orange layer above the heavier Advocaat mix. Try it! Since mine could be considered a riff on the original I called it the Ducky Fluff :)

I have found a reference for the first Fluffy Duck here in Australia, although slightly different. I enjoy reading the histories on your site - cocktail origins are fascinating. Here's something in return.
