  • Comes out a beautiful color orange. This is actually much more complex than you'd expect. Strong citrus flavor, and the Aquavit adds that extra layer to the flavor.
  • Used Brennivín. Tastes mostly like orgeat and lime although a tiny bit of caraway can be sensed. Would reduce both next time.
  • Made with Brennivín. Pale pink, but the taste is not so "girly." Good! — ★★★★

Clear and vibrant slightly orangish/pinkish medium red. Somewhat sweet, but balanced by the Campari's bitterness. Pink grapefruit and light red berry/almost strawberry flavor.

  • Subbed cachaça for white rhum agricole (it basically works). An equal parts Yellow Bird w/ falernum instead of triple sec. A Caribbean Last Word! — ★★★★

mako commented on 10/31/2019:

With lime, falernum, and rhum agricole, this feels like a Caribbean last word.

Given the tropical feel, I really don't get the name...
