Comments

Made this a few times in the year since it was posted and it's good stuff. After I made it tonight I thought I might try 1.25 tequila and .75 sotol maybe.
EDIT: Did that tonight, might be preferable to some. Used Marie Gifford for the first time ever in a drink, as I was using homemade creme de cacao. Still great. Maybe one of my top 16.5 cocktails
