Zachary Pearson commented on 2/08/2014:

That's a whole lotta rosewater - I'm wondering how it doesn't come across like your grandmother's washed your mouth out with soap. I think that Hendricks might be a good sub for the gin if you can't find Uncle Val's.

Thanks,

Zachary

DrunkLab commented on 2/08/2014:

Hendrick's is definitely a good substitute, though Val's is even more cucumber-intensive. And the rosewater gave me pause as well; I thought maybe she was using a particularly dilute example, but the brand she links to is as intense as any.

mikejaz2 commented on 12/31/2014:

First sip surprised me, I was expecting an exotic cough syrpu...I'd try it next time without the additional simple syrup.  

 

Also, it makes a good base for a shot of gin...I used Sapphire East, re-stirred the whole shootin' match with ice, then put it into my antique up glass.  Less sweet, more booze.

we did a blend of amaro (including amargo-vallet) and this was a tasty cocktail.
