  • Used .5oz rich demerara syrup--was eminently drinkable. Chartreuse doing the heavy lifting but cognac provides a nice depth to the base — ★★★★
  • Tried 0.5 simple since I'm careful w/too sweet. This is very good. It starts out like a sidecar, then mellows out w/the chartreuse sneaking in the back. Fantastic cognac drink. (👍)
  • Yummy!! Perhaps a tad too sweet. May drop simple to 1/2 oz.

Treble in fact comes from the Latin "Triplum", which in medieval polyphonic music pointed to the third item, the one that covered the higher notes. Three greens are green apple, cucumber, lime.

Curated this: Removed fresh squeezed from the juices. We trust that you're going to use them, really.

Thanks,

jkim07 commented on 8/14/2014:

Refernce to another drink of the same name notes- “The Bourbon anchors the cocktail, the Amaro Diesus adds aroma and Angostura bitters gives it complexity.” But can't locate the recipe or Marie Celeste’s Carlos Madriz.

  • Very good option with ingredients you probably have.
  • Yummy Bright. Perfect grapefruit
  • didn't have the right bitters, used a grapefruit twist and dash of peychaud's instead.. a little tart, would try again with a tiny bit of syrup maybe
  • Used Sage (Art in the Age), Leopold Bros Maraschino, St. Germain. Bitters help brighten this drink. Refreshing. Shake/Strain/Coupe. Have also added chile lime seasoning for an interesting kick. — ★★★★
  • Made with Glendalough autumn gin and my grapefruit bitters and very nice!
  • Used Conniption Gin, Dashfire Grapefruit Bitters. Very refreshing.
