  • Very well-balanced. And so delicious. Used a cherry garnish. — ★★★★★
  • Probably a 4 if you are in a banana mood
  • A bit too sweet. Maybe more bourbon, less vermouth/banana
  • This doesn't taste strong at all and the banana is a great touch. However it is a little sweet which makes me want to dial down the banana, or maybe it's because Tempus Fugit is sweeter than Giffard.
  • Not bad. The banana is very subtle. Not sure it's better than a standard boulevardier, though.
  • Delicious; campari and banana work far better than expected. Sweet but if you like bourbon boulevardiers, not overwhelmingly so
  • Evolves nicely on rocks as campari mellows. — ★★★
  • I was skeptical but this was indeed an appealing combo (and presumably would be more so with the good banana liqueur). ETA:Chimpgroni good too!

Tucker commented on 1/08/2016:

Very nice as written. I cross this with the Kingston negroni by substituting Smith & Cross for the bourbon. Call it a Chimpgroni. Even better in my opinion. 

Kindred Cocktails commented on 6/27/2018:

Good, but very, very sweet. I would try rye and/or going perfect. Used 50/50 Dolin sweet and Punt e Mes with Tempus Fugit.

  • substituted creme de cassis for creme de mure — ★★★★★
  • 20210602 Tanqueray Citrus Heart Gin, Chambord
  • Have used fresh muddled blackberries and a 1/2 tsp of Creme de yVette instead of the Blackberry liqueur, worked great.

Really good.  As others have said, wonderful balance between sweet and tart/sour.  Hell, it tastes like a maraschino/grapefruit sweet-tart!

MOJO1229 commented on 5/14/2017:


A great drink, as commented upon by others. I made one change that worked out well, however: lacking blackberry liqueur, I substittued Creme de Framboises (a top-notch rasberry liqueur), with a nice outcome. I'm sure the taste of the drink would have been somewhat different, but I was satisfied with the substitution. I used only 1 tsp, but in the future I will use at least 11/2 oz of the rasberry liqueur, because it gets overwhelmed by the lime juice.

This is a wonderful summer afternoon drink that I rated 4.5 (something I don't do often).
