  • Loved it! Used Amaro Lucano. — ★★★★★
  • Strawberry and Mezcal are strong enough that other ingredients get lost. Tastes like smoky strawberries.

I am interested to try but don't have (and can't find) Amaro Abano.  Any substitutions recommended? I have other Amaris

 

Abano has a fairly unique black pepper flavor. I think you could sub something like Averna or even Cynar, but it will be a different drink.
