About
This cocktail was created by Chris McMillian at Revel Cafe & Bar (@revel.nola) in New Orleans in 2020. It is built around bittersweet Italian liqueurs, but the lime and soda keep it from drinking heavy. The orange notes brighten the darker herbal flavors, making this much more refreshing than the color suggests.Cheers y’all!
