Lacking resposado tequila, I swapped the aged spirits, and made this with Appleton rum and white tequila. Worked great!

  • Good, quite dry, maybe need 1/4oz cane syrup — ★★★★
  • Refreshing, but would dial back lime
  • Pleasant, but doesn't have a ton of character. 5 dashes of Peychaud's makes it more interesting. — ★★★★

Pleasant. Added 5 more dashes of Peychaud's, which I think really wakes it up, balancing the strong St. Germain flavor.

Only had blanco tequila and used a heavy hand with the Peychaud's, good stuff. I'd maybe add some orange bitters next time, but I think that goes in everything.
