60 mil/2 oz Byrrh Grand Quinquina
15 mil/.5 oz Gentian Liqueur (Suze)

มุมมอง 212หลายเดือนก่อน
The "Argentine Negroni". To kick off Negroni week, I thought I'd share something a little different.

Combined with the Fernet, it is herbal, has notes of eucalyptus and slightly sweet. The Aperol offers an orange and slight grapefruit note that works well in this riff. Overal...
