  • Not bad - I eases up on the pastis a bit and added a lot more seltzer.
  • A bit sweet. Increased lemon juice to 3/4oz. Might reduce Pastis to 1/2 instead to emphasize amaro. A nice drink even for the non-pastis aficionado. Tried again with 1oz lemon. Too anise. Use absinthe. Skip soda. — ★★

Nice! I haven't tried it, but Tom is an awesome guy with a great palate. Very passionate cocktail nerd. This drink sounds tasty!
