Yes. Substitute with cherry liqueur or kirsch for a similar flavor. Regular brandy will work but omit the cherry character.
Fresh lemon juice is strongly recommended for brightness and balance. Bottled juice tastes flat in this drink.
Use standard cubes or crushed ice. Crushed ice chills faster but dilutes slightly more; cubes melt slower and maintain flavor longer.
The recipe specifies ice, so it's served on the rocks (chilled). Strain into a glass with fresh ice if you prefer.
Yes. Double or triple all ingredients proportionally. Pre-batch in a pitcher and serve over ice for efficiency.
