Missing something?

  • No Galliano? Use Yellow Chartreuse
  • No Galliano? Use Licor 43 (More vanilla and citrus, less anise)
  • No Triple Sec? Use Grand Marnier (Richer and cognac-based, with less bright orange)
  • No Triple Sec? Use Blue Curaçao (Same flavour, but turns the drink blue)
  • No Orange Juice? Use Orange (Squeeze fresh: 1 orange gives about 70 ml)
  • No Orange Juice? Use Blood Orange Juice (Berry-like and deep red)
  • No Cream? Use Coconut Cream (Dairy-free; adds coconut)

All swaps for Galliano, Triple Sec, Orange Juice and Cream
