Less sweet than expected, but a pretty nice experience. Not sure what kind of changes I would apply if I make this cocktail again, but those measurements are fine if you're looking for a not overly sweet but still dessert-like cocktail. Don't skip the nutmeg, please.
I found it quite balanced. It is sweet, yes, how could it not? But the tequila comes through nicely, and the nutmeg dusting does a lot of heavy lifting. Nice interplay of almond and cocoa, a very solid dessert drink.
Made this with Arette Repo and Disarronno. Really liked it. I got the chocolate, the nuttiness, and vanilla, salt and pepper notes from the Tequila. Very nicely balanced on booziness and sweet/sour.
Tried this after Freda's Brow (Grenadine rather than Amaretto and far preferred the former. I agree with an earlier comment a touch of cocoa sprinkle could help bring it out
I love this - it’s not at all what I expected. Beautifully balanced, it has a pleasing but not overriding sweetness. Surprisingly, and perhaps due to the tequila, it’s delicately floral. Don’t omit the nutmeg - it complements the chocolate and enhances the almond with a fine, nutty spice. I’ll be revisiting this one!
