  • Agree on doubling the lemon/lime. I made this up in a chilled coupe (more like an Aviation) without the soda water, though I'm sure that version makes a nice sipper. — ★★★★
  • Doubled lemon and lime plus 2 dashes regan's orange bitters
  • Very floral with so much Yvette & St Germain
  • Probably my second favorite summer drink after Tom Collins.
