Very good. The liqueurs stand out more than the grapefruit and together create a light cola note. A good converter for the Fernet-phobic.

  • This is delicious! I made an oleo-saccharum instead of the demerara simple and lemon juice one time. It's also really good that way. Used a cava. — ★★★★★

  • Not bad, but a bit heavy on the mezcal. Maybe a less smoky one, although I love Vida. Also, what's up with the apple? Not complaining, just curious...

It IS quite smoky - wouldn't hurt to have something to play off of that.
