  • Added salted Compari as in Vipers Drop. Really good!
  • Go skosh (5/8 oz ) on lime juice.
  • Refreshing and surprisingly tart. Might depend on the apricot liquor that you use?
  • A funky sour.

Shawn C commented on 10/29/2023:

Great idea and overall composition, but 1/2 oz of lime makes it too tart/sour, burying the other flavors, at least when it is cold. (Without ice this would improve as it warmed since other flavor intensities increase as a drink warms while the acidity doesn't change much.) I retried with 1/4 oz lime and it was better while still having some of the lime character. I might do this and add a lime peel as garnish to provide the aroma without the additional acidity of the original. I wonder what a dash or two of celery or lemon bitters might do here? Rating this a 4/5 as modified.
