  • "Choking Nut" perhaps?
  • Very bitter. Very sweet. More Amaro than cocktail. Of course, that's hardly a problem. — ☆☆☆☆
  • I liked the original, but just tried subbing cachaca with Barbancourt white rum and added a generous splash of homemade ginger beer on top. Kind of like a Dark and Stormy, but with much more depth and complexity. — ☆☆☆☆
