Instructions

Notes

  • When crafting this drink, try to use quality ingredients for a better taste. 
  • If you are using a vodka that you would not normally drink on its own, then chances are the flavor of your cocktail will suffer. 
  • Make sure that you shake the ingredients together well so that they are all properly mixed together. 
  • You should strain your drink into an old-fashioned glass with ice or rocks glass for best results. 
  • If desired, you can also garnish your drink with a few filbert nuts.
