  • Yes, probably can skip the simple. Mocha-like finish is the best part of this. A lemon twist would be in order here.

Dan commented on 5/12/2016:

The simple in this makes no sense to me. In a regular Toronto it is used because there is relatively little sugar in Fernet. But Cynar has lots of sugar. Might be better without added syrup.

Craig E commented on 5/27/2016:

I thought the same when I saw the recipe (though it's worth noting that the quantity of simple is cut down here). If I get around to some A/B testing I'll report back!

(This also seems like something I'd stir rather than shake.)

I find lemon juice overpowers more subtle flavors, so I dial it back to 1/2 ounce here. Tasty!

Curated this slightly - took the extraneous 'i' from Griotte. Added the club soda and estimated the amount. Thanks, Zachary

As do I. I have a whole list of potential drink names that are just phrases I find annoying or overly common. Stay tuned for "Social Liberal Fiscal Conservative" and "Short On The Sides Long On Top."

  • Very unexpected and unique drink. When you first sip, its all sweet and fruity, and then the gin and sage together come in to add a bitter finish that is really refreshing, and makes you go back in for more.
  • Very good - 4.5. Enjoyed the sage.

  • Made with GC instead of YC. Considered a modern classic for a reason. The Cynar Flip is better. 3.5★
  • The tequila is unexpected in this setting but it makes for an interesting and worthwhile cocktail.

  • Surprisingly dry and complex. Weird effect because I accidently used the wrong bottle of bitters lavender so I should probably try this one again.

Do you mean the orange flower water is a garnish or some other sort of flower? Thanks,  Zachary

Sorry... The orange flower water goes in it. The garnish is a flower. Thanks, Mike
