That sounds terrible.

Last thing I made was:
  • 2 oz blueberry liqueur
  • 3/4 oz rhubarb liqueur
  • 1/2 oz maple syrup
  • 1/4 Cruzan blackstrap rum
  • Dash of orange bitters
  • 2 oz sparkling wine

The wife was pretty happy with it, but it's still only "good" and not excellent. Previous iterations had cinnamon syrup instead of the maple syrup, and maple syrup but no blackstrap rum.
