Nope. At least in comparison to other drinks I have reviewed so far.

  • 2 oz Hpnotiq
  • .75 oz Gin

Combine ingredients into cocktail shaker, shake over ice and pour over one large ice cube. Only if you can’t use Ice Beam though.

Not really, it tastes a little strong depending on what kind of gin you use to make it.

TRY OR PASS?

Yes, it is a delicious drink to just sit outside and relax.
