You're right, it should read "1/4 oz Cointreau" instead of "1/1". I'll try to get it fixed.<br /> <br /> Paul's original recipe is good, but one of the problems I had with it was that while one was good, you were wanting to move to something else for the second one. I feel that a properly balanced cocktail should mean that the flavors don't start getting "too much" as you finish it.<br /> <br /> -Robert Ooops, sorry about that typo.

Cointreau (same quantity as the Campari).<br /> <br /> I actually like the original proportions quite a bit, but will try the variation listed here [maybe tonight!] to see how that works. I suspect it'll be too sweet for me, but no way to tell until I give it a try.<br /> <br /> The Jasmine recipe from the Hotwired cocktail website used 1/4 oz.

What is the correct amount?
