I'd love to be able to make this to the original spec but Creme Yvette seems to no longer be available. Is it still being made? I used violet liqueur and I really thought something was missing. Maybe muddle some strawberries and blackberries in or something?

I made mine with El Tesoro Reposado, Lustau Peninsula Palo Cortado, Cruzan Black Strap, and Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacao. I thought the sherry was too strong at the first sip but gave it a few minutes and I started to taste other things. After that, I was getting a much better balance of flavors when drinking the rest of the cocktail. I guess I just needed to acclimate but it's a very delicious drink! It has lots of complexity to it and I'd be happy to make it again in the future.

This tastes like a sweet and sour berry and citrus candy. Delicious!

I made this with Plymouth Navy Strength, Suze, and Cocchi Americano in equal parts. The gin really holds up here but it packs a punch! This is an excellent drink, both fruity, bitter, and earthy.
