Very good drink, but for the second try we adjusted the recipe.
Found it a bit sweet for our tastes so we forgot the sugar syrup and substituted 1/2 the amount of Giffards Pamplemouse liquor. Added a bit more grapefruit flavour.
Used a Barbados gold as it has no adulterated sugar.
Added a few drops of Difford's Daiquiri Bitters.
Served over ice and it was PERFECT for our tastes.
Spirit forward and not too sweet.
This came up again in my rotation. Still love this cocktail. I now like my cocktail a bit drier so I backed off the amaretto by half. Was still wonderful.
Made with half Jamaican Black and half Barbados amber. Had only 1/2 the amount of orgeat so substituted the remainder with Amaretto. Eliminated the sugar syrup. Added a 151 float. WONDERFUL. The Tiki gods were good to us.
