I found it a little on the sweet side so added some orange bitters which I think toned it down a little.

I found this to be very complex, a nice flavor combination. Made as is and would not change anything. Will make again.

Wonder if this was named after the song by the The Verve from 1997?....And like the song goes " And I'm a million different people from one day to the next", I think this is a drink that is trying to find out what it is. Bitter? sweet?boozey? fruity?
It starts bitter, then the sweetness followed closely by the lime, and Apricot flavors and ends with a lingering "Kentucky Hug" (as we say in the Bourbon world)- a mild lingering alcohol "burn" in the back of the palate.
