  • Fresh, mildly spicy. Creamy mouthfeel. Easy to drink. — ★★★★
  • More like a 1.5. Would make if only ingredients left in the house.
  • Made with Tempus Fugit. The lime acidity really reads as pleasantly complex in the company of these other ingredients. Would never in a million years think of putting these things together, but I have to say it works!

Thanks to a user tip, curated this - changed MB Apry to MB white Creme de Cacao as per the Death and Co. book. Thanks,  Zachary

I was o_O on the lime + cacao, but it's pretty darn good. Huh.

Surprised how balanced and easy drinking this was. Creamy, mildly spicy.
