Subbed Bulleit Rye, freshly squeezed grapefruit and Karl Strauss Wreck Alley Stout, OMG this cocktail's YUM!!!!

Great cocktail, subbed Cynar for the Averna & Old Rasputin for the Guinness, worked well.  Great winter drink.

Peppermary commented on 5/06/2020:

This is really fun and different. Averna is my new favorite ingredient. It's great on its own, but I could almost imagine making a vanilla ice cream float out of this drink for a mind-blowing dessert.

  • Too tart or missing something. Not sure how to fix. I added .25 oz of simple syrup. Not better.
