I notice that we are no longer getting amount recommendations for the fee foam. Or are we supposed to use the same amount as egg white?
Thanks.

From what I’m able to ascertain on a search, Amaro Averna is the ‘closest’ substitute for Lucano with the caveat that it does add more of a cola note. Others mentioned were Nonino and Montenegro but Averna was stated as the closest.

Awesome. Thank you!!

I made this with Wild Turkey 101 and everything else has directed with an express of lemon at the end. Delicious.

This cocktail is outstanding as is. Definitely have to try it. No substitutions needed.

An absolutely delicious cocktail, homemade grenadine makes all the difference and I strongly recommend you make your own.

Thanks, Matthew. I'm glad you liked it. I often do make my own, but thought I'd put the Monin in for simplicity's sake.

Ion ammonium citrate give's Ferro China a unique flavour profile. There is no substitute.

Makes sense. I ended up using Alchemist Amer (my local Amer Picon alternative). It was quite nice.

Any substitutions ideas for the Ferro China?

Bob's are very concentrated, so only drops are required per cocktail. A bottle could last you a lifetime.

Ok, Ok, Good to know. Thanks, Simon. I'll just have to suck it up. 😉

Why are there no reasonable vanilla bitters in the world? I just can't bring myself to spend 50 bucks for Bob's!! Suggested substitutes?

I would like to make this but can't get Braulio. Any substitution suggestions?

If I make this again, I would reduce the Fernet by half and increase the watermelon by the same.

This sounds like when I let my husband mix a cocktail unsupervised and he forgot the sugar syrup and I said “hmm it’s very limey” lol so had to mix some sugar syrup in the glass

Hahaha. Fun!

Made with "legit" Chartreuse and Genepy. BUT I forgot the lime. My wife and I tried it and thought it very good. As I read the ingredients to her, I realized I forgot the lime. Added the lime and also good. I think I could drink it with or without the lime. Fun.

Any substitutions suggestions for Lucano?

Coconut cream liqueur = coconut liqueur with cream usually under 20% alc./vol.

Thank you very much for your responses. Now I know! Hallelujah! \
Made my Lovely Pair of Coconuts with Koloa over the lower ABV options I had and everybody loved it.

Can anyone tell me the difference between coconut rum, coconut cream liqueur, and coconut liqueur? Is it just the alcohol level or what. I'm losing my mind.

Hi, everyone, first off thanks for your responses and suggestions. Update: on my last trip to Total Wine, I saw Izarra Verte and Izarra Jaune available. They were highly recommended as substitutes for the Chartreuse's. I haven't cracked them yet, but we'll see!
