  • Soda water is not needed. We've up in a coupe. As another use e suggested I tried it with Peychauds, while not bad I prefer with Orange Bitters only.
  • Leave out the soda
  • Peychauds bitters in addition to the orange work beautifully

The Bitter Truth's Bogart's bitters (which are, IMHO awesome) work really well in this in lieu of or in addition to Angostura.

  • Really nice. Bitter, but the orange really adds an interesting finish.
  • Tasted as I put ingredients in and seemed nicer without the rum! Used Havana Club -worth a try with a stronger rum

  • Unfocused, lacks spice. Needs absinthe.
  • Made with Saba Spice subbing for the Velvet Falernum, and curaçao subbing for the apricot liqueur, and it was delicious. We called it the Zombie Pandemic.

  • As others point out, this comes out fairly sweet as built here. Next time I would probably try lowering the St. Germain to .5 and upping the bourbon to 1.25. The spiciness of rye might actually hold up better to the liqueurs too.
  • Flavors mesh well, but very sweet - agree with recommendations to increase bourbon, reduce St. Germain. I doubled the bourbon, and would reduce St G to 1/2 or less next time.
  • Quite sweet as spec'd. Up the bourbon and/or reduce the St Germain.
  • Did not have orange cream citrate. Added 5 drops of 1821 barrel aged bitters. Delicious. Wonderful for cooler weather. — ★★★★★
  • Did not have orange cream citrate, but second time making without I cut St Germain by 1/4, increased bourbon by 1/4, good move. Might also be better with a more bitter amaro - maybe Cynar?
  • Cut back on the liqueurs and increase bourbon portions.
  • Sweet. More bourbon ...
