History
I was inspired by the bottle of Cardamaro, and I was inspired to create this Genever Manhattan riff based off of what would work well with that amaro. For a name, I dubbed this one after a Richard Hell and the Voidoids song after thinking about how I was swapping around ingredient pairings from other recipes to assemble this one.
From other users
- Made with 4 drops of absinthe, and one drop of lemon bitters, since I was out of lemons. Also used scant 1/4 oz maraschino since I think m. is kind of a bully. — ☆☆☆☆☆
