Did not have Nonino, so tried it with Montenegro. Quite good! Will have to obtain some Nonino to see if there is a big difference.

I didn't have any Nonino handy so substituted 2 parts Montenegro/1 part Ferrand triple sec to get closer to the more orangey profile of Nonino. This works.

Love this

This is a killer good cocktail. My favorite of the "modern classics" and one of the only cocktails I know that actually works with its 4 equal parts ratio. (most of the others with that base structure benefit from some tinkering with the ratios.) This is a must try, and one you should have in your go-to repertoire.

i didnt have Amaro Nonino , and used yellow Chartreuse instead. I also followed Jason's advice & reduced the lemon juice. Worked well.

Great drink. Also, good with Averna, but maybe could use a touch of simple syrup unless you like it tart. Very interesting with Green Chartreuse. Worth a try.

Terrific drink. Made this with Select and Amaro Montenegro. Great balance and seriously quotable.

I made this tonight (you can watch the video of me doing so here if like: https://youtu.be/k2XApf7IpB4). I know this is an equal measures drink, but I think that taking down the lemon juice a tad makes for a more balanced cocktail, because the Aperol is already quite bitter, and allows the Nonino to shine.

Love this cocktail and so has everyone I've made it for.

Made it with a cheap, generic bourbon and Amaro Lucarno (because I had it in my cupboard, but didn’t have any Amaro Nonino) and really enjoyed the result.
A bit like a less bitter/herbal, but more citrusy Last Word. Very refreshing accompaniment to a good cigar on my balcony in the sun on a baking hot afternoon.

I made it with Averna, pretty pretty good.

Terrific drink, refreshing with complexity. Based on other comment, I may try with Montenegro

The Montenegro makes for a great cocktail as well!

At one point this recipe called for Montenegro Amaro where it now wants Nonino. I’ll stick to the Montenegro since I’ve got that but not newbie.

This is a home run! I've made this to people who don't like Aperol and they still loved it. Extremely fresh drink.
