I'm too afraid to put that much saline in! Is it actually 2 dashes? Or should it be drops?

Enjoyed this one, 4.5. A local old Tom seasonal fall gin made a great star in it. I added 4 drops Bittermens Spiced Cranberry Bitters to my side-by-side version, and liked it even better. The smidge of cranberry goes so well with orange and the baking spices really sang with the fall gin.

Something almost salty came through in our first. Added 1/4oz Cointreau to the next, took it from about a 5/10 to 7/10 for me. If I try again I'll dial back the added Cointreau a smidge.

We liked the play between the rum and gin, and thought the ratio worked well.
