Curated to fix discrepancies with link: Changed name to match link. Listing as authentic, with 2015 or earlier as year. Changed aquavit to Brennivin which is a signature Icelandic style, flavored only with caraway. Served up, twist not shown in two drink pictures, so assume it is discarded after expression.

Not big fans of Aperol, we substituted Gran Classico: delicious.

If you are making it with Gran Classico, then you really should try the Scandagroni (which I recently posted here). It uses Krogstad Aquavit rather than Brennivin, and adds Amontillado sherry. This was on the Krogstad site until the site went down recently.
