I have to buy the non-alcoholic (from Amazon, ugh) since I haven't seen it in the alcoholic version near me. Any recommendations? They have Liquid Alchemist, Tippleman's, Fabbri, Liber & Co, Fee Brothers. I trust your judgment, the prices are similar ($17 for Tippleman's, $22 for Alchemist, $25 for Fabbri, and $20 for Liber (but it says Demerara syrup, so I'm not sure if it is the right thing.

Fabulous story. of course I want to try it, but sadly, don't have the materials or the patience. Said as I was enjoying a pretty bog-standard Negroni with Campari, Tanqueray, and Cinzano in semi-equal parts, imagining the fancier one. About to mix another.

We don't have any cocktail with your combination of ingredients on our database, so I'll be sure to try with a view to adding under your working title: Who Knows. Many thanks.

Maybe I was trying for one of the other ones and was missing an ingredient and liked it anyway. However, I only have one more to go, since my local shop doesn't have any chartreuse - green or yellow. Is there any reasonable substitute? Those monks seem to be hoarding.

I made this with Tanqueray dry gin, Green Chartreuse, Lazzaroni Maraschino liqueur, and Lime juice. Garnished with Amarena Fabbri mini amarena cherries.

I made this with Luxardo Aperitivo - lower abv than Campari and not so bitter. I would probably like it better with Campari, however it is pretty good. I'd drink it again to finish the Aperitivo. Mind you, I LOVE Campari.
