I often find lemon juice overwhelms other flavors, so in future I’ll only use 1/2 oz per drink. Nicely balanced drink overall!

To my palate, I would make this again in a drier format, 1 1/2 oz Bourbon, 1/2 oz elderflower, 1/2 oz apricot liqueur, 3/4 oz lemon juice, 1 dash absinthe.

Having not tried this in 10 years and having just made it Fred's way: I agree with Yarm.
