Did this with 1.5 oz Tanqueray, 1.5 oz Giffard Abricot, 0.75 oz lime juice, and a 5 oz of Fever Tree Club Soda. Quite well-balanced IMO: Gin and lime flavors up front, and the apricot comes in on the finish.

This came out really well! I used Disaronno instead of Luxardo, and added some ground allspice as a garnish.

This comes out pretty well as a cocktail too, especially with a few dashes of cocoa or xocolatl bitters.

I found a 2:1:1:3 ratio of bourbon, triple sec, lemon juice, and Vernor's ginger ale (omitting syrup entirely) was sufficiently sweet without being overpoweringly so.
