I don't use this word often: magnificent... Followed the recipe to a T, but used 30 ml Appleton Estate 8 and 5 ml Bacardi Carta Blanca. I did also use Fever Tree Tonic Water Light, as I can't stand excess sugar, unless it's buried in under intense flavors... Very fortunate outcome. Cheers.
Made it with 4.5cl of aged 7yo Rum, 1cl Luxardo Maraschino, Lustau Amontillado Blend, 3 Dashes of Grapefruit Essence and topped up with Thomas Henry Botancial Tonic Water
The initial drink was just a bit to sweet for me.
Very nice!
