  • Halve the orgeat — ★★★★
  • Used Smith & Cross, halved the orgeat, could only coax 3/4oz out of my lime. Balance still okay. Lime peel on the finish. — ★★★★★
  • Halve the orgeat and falernum, or double the lime
  • MUST TRY

Comments

Very good. I made it Tiki-Ti style, blended for a few seconds (someday, I'll own a pebble ice machine). Nice to have a tiki drink that's not all juice and has some savory notes from the chartreuse. ?Maybe? a touch sweet? I used a Bg Reynolds Falernum Syrup, and not the John D. Taylor Velvet Falernum, which perhaps makes a difference? Either way, great drink.
