Awesome name!... Looks delicious, too.

Shawn C commented on 12/18/2022:

I am fond of Lillet Rose and the aggressive bitterness of Gran Classico separately, but for some reason the combination in this drink creates an odd lipstick/old lady floral perfume effect that doesn't work for me (or the others who sampled my drink.) It was somewhat better as it warmed.
