Before reading the caption, which explains that this was named after an 1863 battle, I was wondering why this cocktail was named "shrimp" since the taste didn't really make me think of the crustacean/shellfish, aside from the saline solution which seemed to overpower the cocktail for me personally?!

Missed seeing the 6 drops of orange flower water, so I made it last night without that ingredient. Overall, I was underwhelmed by the taste, so I added 5 ml ginger syrup & was *still* unimpressed. Can't add nutmeg due to an allergy, but will try it again sometime with the orange flower water. Not sure how it's getting a 4/5 rating since it lacks oomph IMO.

Very helpful - thanks! I didn't realize that link existed until you mentioned it.

A little perplexed by the 0.6 ml of the Angostura Aromatic bitters - should it be 1 dash? How do you measure less than a milliliter? I suppose 0.6 ml is approximately 1/8 tsp, so I'm going with 1 dash.
