Missing something?
- No Gin? Use Old Tom Gin (Sweeter and rounder, so cut the syrup a little)
- No Gin? Use Genever (Maltier and rounder)
- No Dry Vermouth? Use Bianco Vermouth (Sweeter)
- No Dry Vermouth? Use Lillet Blanc (Fruitier and sweeter)
- No Sweet Vermouth? Use Punt e Mes (Noticeably more bitter)
- 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 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)
