Too sweet for me, and the vodka doesn't add anything except alcohol, of course. Thought I would enjoy it with the Galiano and absinthe, but not for me.

I find myself making this for the second night running. Enough said. Go easy on the absinthe - a dash is right - and it’s great.

I had to try this because my grandmother was named Bernice. Love the licorice flavor. I agree with a prior commenter that the vodka does really add anything to the flavor. I wonder how it would taste with gin? Nonetheless it does my grandmothers memory proud. I’ll definitely make again.

Medicinal...in a good way!

Enjoyed this drink. A bit sweeter than I typically like, but I could see many people enjoying this beyond the “alcohol forward” group of enthusiasts.

Substituting honey syrup for the simple takes this to the next level!

Dont play around and add 5ML absinthe to complement the Galliano. Seems like a Chartreuse drink almost. Vodka doesnt add much to this, just volume.

This was better than I expected, although my dash of Absinthe was a tad over 2.5 ml. I like them a tad less sweet so they go down slower (Guzzle guzzle, wink wink, know what I mean). A solid cocktail, that deserves to be "sipped" more often (2 of 8 of "Her Maj's 8 Jubilee Cocktails)

This was wonderful as an aperitif. Nice citrus and herbal hints. The mint garnish helps bring out the touch of mint in the cocktail.

We felt it worked really well as a pre-dinner cocktail- the aniseed and sharpness linking to fennel, fish and salads maybe.
Starts quite fruity but becomes more savoury towards the bottom of the glass.
