Perhaps our new POTUS should try a few of these and calm down since he likes McKinley and his tariffs so much (sorry Simon I couldn’t resist). Great old school cocktail that is improved with quality ingredients. One and done for the day though.

I was curious as to why the photograph seems to contain ice and the description doesn’t so I made one of each and preferred the one with ice. Probably something to do with being an American.

I kind of like the original better so I combined both withe the muddled fresh ginger and the liqueur and it was even better, left out the sugar syrup though

Reduced hazelnut to 15ml and it was still all I could taste but I’m not a big fan of hazelnut liqueur so I will try 5ml next time since I’m trying to get rid of my bottle of Frangelico.
