For me this was certainly a discovery. Suze is an unmistakable star here, with its bitter notes strongly pronounced in the cocktail. While other ingredients simply add a bit of balance to the drink, without overpowering it.
Since I love citrus, I decided to try Steve’s version with 22,5 ml of grapefruit juice and I believe it was the right choice for me.
