Wow. That was different- but in a good way (the genius of gaz regan). Made the mistake of serving in a champagne flute - resulting in even more froth and bubbles! But however you serve it, this is a seriously good fun drink.

Done and sent!

Hi Simon. Sure thing! I’ll sort it this evening.

I was all set to remake the recipe on the card i got from Raffles back in 2003… it’s been stuck on the fridge for years. However, I’m glad I went with these proportions - what a lovely cocktail. It’s everything i wished the Raffles experience was - the reality back then was “iconic bar, lots of monkey nuts, underwhelming drink”. Cheers

Me too. A spritz of absinthe was just perfect. And absolutely needed the dilution. For a non-whiskey lover, i thought this was superb

What a perfect combination of flavours and notes, quite exceptional (at least to my palate). Had to sub the whiskey barrel bitters for Chocolate bitters, as another discerning drinker suggested, but it worked for me. Now on rotation!
