  • Really good bitter cocktail. Subbed in .75 homemade amaro and .75 aperol to replace Montenegro. Also thought it was good with a spritz of Laphroiag. — ★★★★
  • Tried it with Averna. Sweet and smoky
  • Nicely light and refreshing with good complexity, but more Montenegro than I can take.

I wanted to name this drink after Lorena Wood, but I kept slipping up and saying Lorena Bobbit. We're a family restaurant, and that just wasn't going to fly, so I changed it.

Like the name and the concept of this drink.  I made a "version" of it with muddled dark brown sugar, plum bitters, and blackberries.  And just shook the lemon, bourbon, and honey syrup (no allspice dram on hand).  I was quite pleased with the way it turned out.  I really like drinks that turn out deep purple in color like this one did.

Did not like the agave syrup. Either use less or try different sweetener.
