  • I swapped in Lillet Blanc for the white vermouth (which I didn't have), so I might reduce the Amaretto a tad to offset the added sweetness. Also, allowing the cocktail to sit in ice a little bit balances the flavors.
  • A little too sweet. Try 3/4 3/4 next time.

Too sweet, also a bit one dimensional. Might try it again with half the amaretto replaced with vecchio de capo.
