christina in tacoma commented on 11/06/2011:

It seems extravagant to mix with such an expensive wine, but it is quite sweet; the gin tempers that while still letting all the delicious spice flavors shine through. This recipe is flexible- I thought the wine got a little lost with the stated proportions- I liked it 1:1 with a little extra lime, so adjust to taste.

tjaehnigen commented on 9/03/2016:

I like this one, but the barolo chinato is a bit hard to find in my area (thank you interwebs). I have only used the star anise/lime garnish combo.

christina in tacoma commented on 10/05/2011:

I would say the ginger beer float is optional; I made this without and the drink was delicious.

Dan commented on 3/30/2013:

Moderated to confirm to larger proportions of Imbibe recipe, which is probably more authoritative, and added lime wheel garnish.

christina in tacoma commented on 6/27/2014:

Revisited after a couple years in an effort to finish off my bottle of Canton, and I still think this is an amazing drink. I do prefer it with a bit less lime however, and the last couple of times I made it I added a little orgeat since it plays so well with the Fernet Branca and the ginger. I amend my previous comments about the ginger beer being optional- it's a little syrupy without. However, the drink is on the sweet side and the ginger beer only adds to that. I've heard that King's ginger liqueur has more ginger flavor than the Canton that I finally finished, so I wonder if that with regular soda water would give enough ginger kick without getting too sweet.

Stewart commented on 9/17/2016:

Never having tried it with Canton, I just made this with King's Ginger, 3/4 oz of lime, and soda instead of ginger beer.  I thought the flavor balance was good, not too sweet, but the ginger was more subtle than big-kick.

Can someone explain where the second portion of lime juice is to be used, please?

Zachary Pearson commented on 12/03/2015:

That's a good question. The link is broken, and the current cocktail menu doesn't have this on it. Perhaps the OP can chime in, but it's not lime peel as garnish. Thanks,  Zachary
