Aperitivo #2

1 oz Barbados Rum, Doorly's XO
2⁄3 oz Sweet vermouth, Carpano Punt e Mes
2⁄3 oz Amaro, Vecchio Amaro del Capo
2⁄3 oz Lime juice
2⁄3 oz Tonic water, Fever Tree (Mediterranean)
Instructions

Shake everything but tonic water.
Top with tonic

Notes

Herbal tones of del capo are nearly absent.
Tried without tonic water, and was much better with it.
Tartness decreased a lot with tonic, making an easy sipper aperitivo with Amaro undertones.

History

Having Christmas with family in Barcelona, Spain.
Bought a lot of liquors because of cheap price.

Mediterranean tonic water is a must have for tonic drinks: Soft bitterness and very good taste.
Perfect for gin tonic.

Difficult to find in France.
