Tom McCafferty, a beloved reader from Georgetown, TX USA, was looking for a bitter cocktail using Campari, Elderflower Liqueur and Averna Amaro. Couldn’t find anything exactly, so he made up one of his own. He thinks it is well-balanced and just bitter enough. He jokingly named it after his self, Bitter Old Man.
