@WhiskeySandwich Pro Tip…I use The Pappy & Company maple syrup that’s been aged in 23 year old bourbon barrels. It’s absolutely insane how good it is. They put it on sale every year on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. I buy 3,give one as a present and keep the other 2. They have another one that’s been aged in regular bourbon barrels,it’s cheaper but doesn’t compare. It’s the best maple syrup I’ve ever had.

I have a bottle of that pappy maple!

Another riff on the Last Word is the Final Ward, rye and yellow (some recipes green) chartreuse-based with lemon instead of lime.

My favorite negroni is a La Rosita.
Kind of a perfect (sweet & dry vermouth) negroni made with your favorite tequila in a 3:1:1:1 ratio / (tequila:dry:sweet:campari). Personally, I think a reposado does the best here but also good with your favorite blanco. Adding a dash of grapefruit bitters is nice too.

For favorite Last Word riff, it's easily the industry sour;
Fernet Branca / Green Chartreuse / Simple Syrup / Lime

@endo tell us more! Gin looks interesting but what have you made with it?

[endo]

@ARNC it's a Gin Basil Smash. I'm not a talented cocktail maker, but it did turn out quite nice.

@endo sounds good and same here. The funny thing is I seem to get better the more I make, especially when I make them all on the same evening!
