Shawn C commented on 6/21/2026:

Haven't tried this, but the problem with the substitution of Nonino for Cardamaro is the resulting proof (as well as loss of wine base flavor.) The recipe is nearly 1.5 oz of ethanol, over 84 proof before ice dilution. That's going to be pretty hot on the tongue. And if one subs in a higher proof gin (e.g. Tanqueray), it becomes more problematic.
