  • Pretty easy recipe that doesn’t get enough mentions - I switch the volume of Punt E Mes and Campari around, add Angostura bitters, use the rye / cherry / coffee liqueurs I have on hand and omit the grapefruit twist.

It is so weird that they would publish this with no attribution. I can't find any elsewhere and there isn't even a single author on the article (I've seen authors post their original and not list who created it).
