Notes

I've hesitated to post this due to my perception that Liquore Kapriol could be hard to find. It's very heavily juniper-flavoured - supergin, if you like - and I've never tasted an amaro like it. But if you can find it, try this drink. I hope you like it as much as I do.

History

Named for its resemblance in colour to Vaseline glass - see photo. The glass contains small amounts of uranium salts which give it its colour and make it glow brightly under UV light. The drink does NOT contain uranium!

Cocktail summary
