Brian writes that Qi White Tea Liqueur is no longer available.

Substituted Qi with licor de te Bruja Bella. Should have looked up the specifics of Qi beyond the tea flavor because the Bruja Bella is quite sweet and Qi is not. If substituting with another tea liqueur, ease off on the maple or it will dominate and this becomes hard to tell apart from a Filibuster.
