What do i do with this concoction? throw it away or try to dilute it?

Question

ok i was trying to make a cocktail "The Cointreauversial Japanese Monkey Runs Amok In Downtown Rome" ok so maybe i should have known it was a bad idea from the beginning lol

BUT its supposed to have:

1 oz. Liqueur, banana (Bols)

3/4 oz. Campari

3/4 oz. Cointreau

1 oz. Liqueur, melon (Midori)

but i didnt have melon or banana liqueur, but who does? so i tried to substitute coconut rum for the banana (tropical type theme lol) and instead of melon i used blue curacao and apple schnapps (well, whatever, i cant really explain that one except blue and yellow make green? )

anyway i have this cocktail of blue curacao, campari, apple schnapps, grande marnier (is that different from cointreau?), and coconut rum. it looks cool as h**l the red & blue dont mix so it looks blue and red at same time) but its sooo sweet... how can i dilute it?

any mix, lemonade, etc to dilute or vodka, gin to make less sweet, what should i add to it??

or must i throw it out? = ( lol thanks

Answer 1

To have a drink with "Japanese" in it's title without anything remotely "Japanese" in it is nothing short of a war crimes offense.Blue ,yellow, green, apple, coconut, compari, schnapps---- a veritable melange of textures and colors. But------------- NO SAKE? It has to have SAKE! Add it,or I will have a sumo sake you in the mouth!

Answer 2

You are very adventurous for trying this! And I love your modifications, so cute. And yes, cointreau is very similar to grand marnier....

Add vodka if you really don't mind being sick...otherwise make a Cointreauversial Japanese Monkey Runs Amok In Downtown Rome SPRITZER by adding club soda!

Cheers!

Answer 3

I'd add tonic water or diet lemonade as a mixer. Sounds great though! What you gonna name it?

Answer 4

How about adding tonic water or club soda?  they don't have any sugar.....

Answer 5

Answer 6

Toss it, I know I hate wasting good liquor, but you don't want to drink something that taste terrible..
