I modified this a little with orange curacao and lime instead of Cointreau and lemon juice, and three dashes of grapefruit bitters, and it very much changes the character of the drink but it is extremely nice.

I used the recipe in the spirited cocktail book, which uses twice as much Cointreau. Still tastes exactly like grapefruit juice. Lovely.

It's very nice, made it one day for a few people, the ladies like it much more then me or the other men... For me it's missing in complexity.
I would say it's very close to Grapefruit juice in it's flavor.

Tastes so much like grapefruit juice it's uncanny

Well balanced on the bitter and acidic. Makes a nice change to the classic negroni.

Liked this one. I used Meyer Lemons which aren’t as tart as Lisbon or other lemons. Cointreau and Campari are an interesting combo. I’m enjoying this only about 10 miles from Emeryville in the SF Bay Area, so it’s a home town cocktail !

Tried another variation using mezcal instead of gin. Excellent!

Tried another variation where I added a few dashes of lavender bitters after serving. Really liked this.
