0.2 ml of orgeat?
Hi Peter,
Thank you for your comment. When I first published this recipe, I used a dash of orgeat sugar syrup but the recipe editor (community version) wasn't as elaborate as it is today so this was the minimum measure I could add. Subsequently I completely removed the syrup as the Saliza/Disaronno adds enough sweetness.
I made this with Laphroaig and ordinary sweet vermouth (Martini), halved the bitters to 4 dashes and it was absolutely amazing. New favourite. You do need to like the Smokey whiskey to appreciate this cocktail though. Even with 10mil this was dominating the drink.
