Revisiting. Love these classic recipes and the unapologetic flavour hits. Sweet, sour, fruity and lovely touch of palate cleansing bitterness at the end - with a vermouth di Torino as suggested. It’s a classic for a reason!

Also tried 35ml London dry, 25 sloe, which worked very nicely for a gin lover like me. Intensified the dry-sweet-herbal-bitter contrasts.

Since I'm a gin lover, I tried your suggestion. And I should say, thank you John. It works great.

Accidentally used a Nick & Nora, but the measure fit perfectly and seemed to intensify the flavours even.
