This is a cracker! Structurally, i am struggling to see why this works, but it does. I’ve now made this twice, first time i had no chartreuse so used montenegro - and it worked very nicely indeed. Must try again in front of a roaring fire… it is so comforting
Unusual, but rather moreish… I may up the sweetness next time (personal preference). There will be a next time. Curious as to its origin and popularity. I get snow-topped peak vibes from this… Nice addition to the site.
I will echo John’s “wow”… This packs a flavour punch, absolutely lovely. What an unexpected combo success. Goes well with Torres fried egg crisps, but then so does everything!
My all-time favourite. We call this Tchaikovsky's Daiquiri, as when you apply your 20% scaling for 60ml of rum, you need 1812 lime to sugar…. The perfect overture! Incidentally we ran out of our usual rum and could only get a bottle of M&S Jamaican white - which was surprisingly good in this.
