History

Cognac stirred with orange and apricot liqueurs and orange bitters. The original recipe calls for two dashes, but too many bitters will spoil this subtle drink. Achieving correct dilution is key, hence the addition of half a shot of chilled water.

Daniel Bovey created this recipe in 2015 at Be At One, Bristol, England.
