Enjoyed this cocktail but I think I might slightly cut down on the curaçao next time. Interesting about reducing the volume by 33% to fit a Nick and Nora glass. Notwithstanding this is a intended to be a short apertivo drink, I wanted a slight larger volume so increased the amounts by 25%; even with a long stir the added dilution didn't approach filling my 5oz / 150 ml Nick and Nora glass. I suspect that had I followed the recipe this would have been a very short drink indeed! A lovely drink regardless of the volume.

Seems pretty similar to a Campden, albeit differently proportioned

January is Open a bottle of Lillet month (for me) and this is definitely on the list! A delightful, light and balanced martini-esque drink. I’m making with bitter curaçao at the moment - might go a head-to-head with Cointreau and another Orange curaçao next?

I've been searching for a cocktail like this, mostly for an at least serviceable drink to help purge dwindling ingredients. This is relatively stellar. Gordon's Dry, Bauchant, Lillet Blanc. Fantastic. (13 Nov 2022, 2:14p)

Subtle, light and refreshing with a lovely light golden colour, slightly pink. I also tried this with Cocchi Americano Rosa - lovelier rose-gold colour - but Lillet Blanc makes for the best integrated flavour in this particular cocktail recipe.

Nice orange martini style, subtle simp,e and tasty. No info about the name, is it related to Raimbaut of Orange, possibly a poet/troubadour?

Too sweeeet

Cheeky is right. Invites meddling with the vermouth component to taste.
