Simon - was this created in 2006 or 2026? History section cites both years...
Taffel Aquavit, with its pronounced caraway flavor, can be a tricky mixer. I enjoyed this drink: the herbaceous Génépy complemented the caraway well, and the lemon/simple + shaking helped dilute, lengthen and smooth out the intense main flavors, with the bitters accentuating the citric edge.
Simon - if cutting with simple syrup, can you specify how much simple to add and whether “cutting” means reducing the grenadine as well (and if so to what amount)? Thanks.
Ingredients list says Dolin Rouge but Review says Vermouth di Torino (assume Cocchi)... not sure which is preferred here?
