I am sure this is delicious… but a pet peeve of mine is when people call things Pumpkin ________, and there’s actually no pumpkin in it. Pumpkin actually has a really nice flavor, as one can experience properly in a good pumpkin beer (ie one brewed with actual pumpkin and only enough spices to accentuate things.

Still, I’ll bite. Putting this one on my wishlist to give it a whirl.

The classic version is classic for a reason. I like the modified version in Difford’s Guide well enough (a lot, actually), but does it outshine the original? Not quite.

A bit confused… the Last Word is known as one of the quintessential equal parts cocktails. So… this is not a classic Last Word. It’s a variant. Which is fine… I actually just made both this recipe and the equal parts version and am sipping them side-by-side. I’m honestly not sure which one I like better. But… that’s not the point. This should have some indicator that the classic recipe as accepted as standard has been tweaked. Like “Difford’s recipe”? But nothing even mentions the tweak.
