I also did not have the bitters (I swear every cocktail I look at calls for Difford’s daiquiri bitters!) but absolutely do not let that stop you. Fantastic cocktail.

Excellent indeed. I had to resort to a sweeter Madeira but I assume that wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

A nice drink. I managed to keep my shirt on so I cannot say for certain how that affected the experience, but one supposed it made it more enjoyable for others.

I’d normally never say this, but I think this benefits from erring on the side of extra maraschino.

As always, try the Dammit Jimmy!

Great cocktail.

I first encountered it at the Rabbit Hole “speakeasy” at Sandals Ochi. This was where I experienced my first true cocktail (the excellent Bees Knees) so it holds a special place in my heart.

Most bartenders will make the equal parts recipe. But one year one bartender gave me his preferred recipe of 1.5 dewars, 0.75 sherry, 0.5 amaretto. Give it a try if the equal parts recipe is too sweet.
