- Cherry liqueur (I used Tattersall) brings out the plummy/pruny flavors of the Punt e Mes--reminded me of Pedro Ximenez sherry.

Tried this one yesterday. Pretty good. Used a bad Cherry liqueur. It tasted very good nonetheless. Funny: I was searching on variations on the Blood and sand cocktail i thought to use the same ingredients ! But never tried it. I am thinking in using Cherry juice or/ and maurin quina, and pierre Ferrand Curaçao.
