How are you serving this at the party? Will you pre mix it with the liquor or serve the syrup separately?
I mixed it all up about 30 minutes before people arrived. Just posted a batch recipe!
Fantastic approach. Thanks! No maraschinos in the house but did have maraschino liquor. Just matched the triple sec. To cut the sweet a bit more I hit a few more dashes of bitters and would highly recommend rye or a prohibition style bourbon like Old Forrester 1920 Prohibition Style. Happy Holidays!
Wonderful, thanks!!
Oh. My. Gosh. This was a HUGE hit at our Christmas party this weekend (aka our Kelsey inspired Christmas party). It was incredible. We had a couple who are both bartenders and they loved the use of the triple sec!!
