  • Flabby. 2 dashes of chocolate bitters as suggested by another comment helps a lot. Neither garnish contributed enough to lift the drink into worthwhile territory. Vodka isn't a foundation to build a drink on, even when given strong supporting cast. — ★★

  • This is delicious! Nice work. Rosemary adds a nice touch. Vodka rarely ends up in my cocktails, but this is a keeper! I also tried with 2 dashes of chocolate bitters which is nice too.
