  • The juniper just doesn't integrate well with the orgeat for us. We might try something more complex like Ding Ho and see if the balance works better for us. — ★★
  • Did 2:3/4:3/4, with Beefeater, yuzu superjuice, and floral homemade orgeat, and 2 dashes Ango. Good but not exceptional (which is what I predicted).
  • Go with 0.75 lemon 0.5 orgeat and use Tiki Bitters. Yum.
  • Switch lemon and orgeat proportions? Add absinthe
  • Meh. Nothing special.
  • 9/22/13 My recipe showed add 2 dashes Angostura bitters.

These proportions make a pretty dry cocktail. I liked it better with 1.25 oz gin (I used Bombay Sapphire), and .5 oz each orgeat and lemon. 3 stars.

I added a little cherry vanilla bitters to nice effect.

Trust me - 2oz Tanqueray, 0.75 lemon, 0.75 BG Reynolds orgeat, 2 dashes Angostura, shaken and served up with a Luxardo cherry in the bottom of the glass. 5*.
