Not bad. It's drier than you expect, and you can appreciate the tequila softened by the orange and the grenadine syrup. The salt gives a nice touch.
By the way, my cocktail was way pinkier than in the photo. It depends on the grenadine syrup or this photo is incorrect?

Chocolate bitters can be optional or substituted?

Better than you expect. At first is sweet, but then you start to taste the whiskey. It's like a distant weird irish cousin of a Manhattan. It will be redder and/or sweeter depending of your grenadine syrup.

Very light and refreshing, but you need a very tasteful limoncello and gin, otherwhise the ginger beer will overwhelm all the drink.

Good aperitif, but I don't see it as a negroni.

It's really good, it's sweeteer than a traditional Negroni, yet it still has her bitterness. Excellent variation if I want something lighter than a Boulevardier.

It's very different. It's dryness is strong yet peculiar. Not for everybody, but it's a good aperitif.

Really good. Sure, it's sweet, but without overwhelming the flavours, you can still appreciate the vermouth and the gin.

We think that Angostura or Orange Bitters would work just fine. Maybe just one dash if you're a bit shy when it comes to bitters. We really enjoy this cocktail.

I see. What about 1 dash of angostura and 1 dash of orange? Would that be too much?

I didn't use any bitters because they were optional, but it's a very tasty and balanced cocktail despite the big amount of vermouth.
It would be possible to use another type of bitters?

It's very tasteful, though I think it's sweeter than the graphic says. Maybe a 6 would be better.

It's good. Perfect if you're in the mood for a sour but you don't want something very sweet.

Very tasty. It reminds me a bit of a stronger bamboo. The cognac softens the drink without sweeting it.

It's not bad, but I can't appreciate the peychaud bitters (I added 2 dashes).

It tastes good. You can taste a bit of the orange of the Triple sec but it's not overwhelming at all.

In my experience, aromatized wines like Lillet, Dubonnet and Byrrh can’t stand up to Campari and the cocktail ends up unbalanced.

I had a feeling that might be the case.

Not bad, it's very easy to drink. The tequila is very hidden though.

The review is correct, sweet and tart. Not a bad cocktail, but depending of your grenadine syrup, it can be too sweet.

Good drink, fruity but not overwhelming.

Not bad, though I feel the Campari kills the vodka. It's not like you can't feel the vodka, but it's too subtle for me. Mabe I need to use a more flavourful Vodka (I used Absoulte Vodka).

It's very tasty. I think it's too strong for an aperitif though, It could work as a digestive too.

Yes, but will create a slightly different cocktail.

I see, thank you.

Very tasty, but you have to be very careful with your red vermouth, otherwise it could be too sweet.
