I tried this with all equal parts and I'm not sure why the House of Angostura chose to go a different way. It absolutely works in its own right as a Negroni riff. In my mind it's even surpassed it. The Negroni is freshly bitter whereas the Amaroni (with my specs) is darkly bitter. Both works splendidly but the Amaroni is my champion for the fall and winter.

I can confirm that equal parts works great, though I could see how some may find it a touch sweet.

This recipe is identical to S&M

Tastes like the "Mai Tai" I had on a cruise. Added 1/2 oz of Smith & Cross to give it a little more dimension.

This is a nicely balance and easy Tiki sipper - Campari reigns in the sweetness without overexerting bitterness.

A terrific way to literally spice up your Whiskey Sours!
I see other recipes calling for 1:1 with Rye and Chili liqueur, but I think Difford has his specs adjusted well - the chili makes its presence known without overpowering the rye.

Great Rift on a daiquiri in my opinion. I see everyone using Smith and cross ... Try some Doctor Bird to level up yur funk. Great for mid to mid high ester rum. For example, Hampden Rumfire would overpower this.

Each palate is different of course, but in a side by side comparison of these specs with S&C vs Dr. Bird, I found Dr. Bird overwhelmingly overtook the drink.

I just muddled a couple of coins of ginger in the shaker tin in lieu of ginger liqueur and mixed it all with up with Plantreray Xaymaca - great daiquiri riff!

My first thought upon sipping, "this is like pink lemonade for adults." Really terrifically balanced sipper.

I believe this is misspelled as it's apparently intended to be titled "Fay Wray."

Try 1 1/2 ounces scotch; 1/2 ounce allspice dram. A bit sweeter perhaps but more fall spices to balance that out.

Agreed; I did Morgenthaler's original recipe and it was too Scotch forward for me. Adding in more Allspice Dram noticeably improved it.

Amazingly chocolate-y with no chocolate ingredients. Highly recommended!

A definite improvement for me over the classic Hotel Nacional Special - the added depth of the cinnamon syrup and banana liqueur elevates the drink.

Despite the differing ingredients, I was surprised how this drink presented itself to my palette as just a normal whiskey sour with some mint garnish.

Smith and cross to the Rescue, 25ML demerara syrup for me. Surprisingly still super funky even with all that dillution and ice. Excellent.

Same experience here! I was a bit dubious from 2 full oz of dilution. This is an easy, funky rum-foward delight!
