I was looking for something to use my Averna in. Found this recipe. Used the Laphroaig I had. I really liked the blend of the strong scotch and Averna. Will make again.
I was out of Angostura Bitters, so I used Hella Aromatic bitters instead. Worked really well. The classic Manhattan is a favorite for me, but substituting a good Anejo tequila is a brilliant twist. Loved it.
