  • When made with Grand Mariner, needs a couple dashes of angostura bitters
  • No. Too sweet. . .and then just bad.

Mixin In Ansley commented on 3/07/2024:

A jammy rum drink, a decent switch up from a more likely brown spirit given this spec.


Artur B commented on 1/03/2025:

Too sweet even with 2 dashes of Angostura. After that even worse.

ccmonsterman commented on 12/12/2014:

I find that walnut liqueurs can be overpowering, to the point where you loose all other flavors. So, I reduced this to 1/4 oz. I love it! Not overly sweet, and actually the first walnut drink I will make again! Oh, and I used Nocello. Perhaps Nocello is a sweeter walnut liqueur.


Bevx commented on 12/13/2014:

Yeah, I'm gonna update the recipe. I think I meant for it to be 1/2 oz coffee & 1/4 oz walnut, instead of the other way around. I use Nocello in this too, and you're right: it's VERY sweet & powerful... Also, I use Luxardo Espresso Liqueur which is more "coffee-y" and less sweet than some others, helping punch through that wall of walnut.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

  • French 75’ with cranberry. Lime juice mixes better with the sour cran than the lemon imo. We used a 50/50 mix with a Freixenet cava. Be sure to double strain.
  • A little sweet, use dryer bubbly or less sugar

  • Sweet and rough - like an old fashioned. The syrup tends to dominate. I used rhubarb bitters and angostura. It's okay, but I prefer a real Old Fashioned.
