Made this with Kina L'Aero D'Or to try to get closer to old Lillet. I'm never quite sure about this much orange juice in sour-ish cocktails, and my trepidation was borne out here. Not altogether unpleasant, but I wouldn't make it again.

Tried to do it with acid corrected orange juice and clearly needs another sweetener in that case. I suspect even naturally needs some. Not good with this plan.
