  • A pleasant, more subtle Bloody Mary alternative. Might lessen or forego the pepper part of the garnish next time, as it dominated the nose a bit much. — ★★★★

  • a tad tart, maybe up the falernum or split with cinnamon syrup
  • Not bad, but a little sour. I used Flor de Cana 4 yr and pink grapefruit. Maybe a sweeter rum? White grapefruit would be even more acidic, so I dunno... I'll keep fiddling...
  • More three dimensional than the original. Great for brunches.
