This is nice for those days when you want a margarita but find your supply of limes has dried up…

I didn’t have aperol so made it with Campari and just a drop of sugar syrup - very nice and not too sweet.

Found this a little punchy for my mood this evening (could be the rye I’m using) so I added 20 ml of sweet vermouth for a more Manhattan-y feel. Very nice. And I agree whole heartedly with the previous comment - a little syrup from Jack Rudy’s bourbon cherries also helped.

Love a Jasmine as is, but just made this “long” by subbing a wee bottle of Gioia bitter soda (100ml) in place of the Campari - very nice and refreshing.
