I found this drink to be too sweet, so I decreased the Triple Sec and the Green Melon Liqueur by 7.5ml or 1/4 fl oz and added 15ml or 1/2 fl oz of lemon juice, which did improve this drink a little bit by adding a slight sour note, however I probably wouldn’t make this drink again if I’m being honest

I quite liked this, however I felt like there was a just tad too much of a bittersweet note happening in this drink and not enough of a floral not, so I made this again by swapping the Elderflower Liqueur and Lemon Juice measurements around and added 2.5ml of Agave Syrup and thought that this was a bit better, since you still get that bittersweet note from the Aperol, Lemon Juice and the Aromatic Bitters without it overshadowing the Elderflower Liqueur, making it more pleasant to my taste

Just tried it and it’s a little more sour and tart due to the Lemon Juice and Crème De Framboise, but works really well with the Dark Rum and the small hint of Grand Mariner, with in my opinion this variation being equally as good the original

An Excellent Cocktail with the Crème De Cassis not being overpowering, with there being a nice amount of citrus coming through from the limes, with the small hint of Grand Mariner smoothing things out nicely, which I’m going to make this again by swapping out the Crème De Cassis for Crème De Framboise and swapping out the Lime Juice for lemon juice, with the measurements being the same to see how that goes
