Aquamarine blue, this delicately fruity gin-based cocktail is dried by a splash of vermouth and soured by lemon juice

For us, a good dash of grapefruit bitters woke this one up from its very pleasant slumber.

I tried another one, closer to specs (mainly I had to use Cocchi Americano as the dry vermouth). And it was pretty decent, but I liked my Apple Jack heavy version a little better.
But having your comment in my back pocket, I added a dash of grapefruit bitters to mine. It did seem to spackle some small holes I felt were in the cocktail - not changing it greatly, but improving it a bit. Thanks for the tip!

We usually reach for the Calvados with this one but tried your base spirit split using Applejack and it was good...nice apple forward. Thanks for your tip.
