What is the bartender tip for a Sol Maior?
Licor 43 already arrives sweet and vanilla-forward: no syrup needed — the mandarin juice lengthens it and the lime cuts it. The 15 ml of lime is the acid backbone; if the mandarins are very sweet, add 5 ml more. Stir the 43 up from the bottom before the soda — the liqueur is denser and will otherwise sit in a layer. After the soda water, just one turn of the spoon so you don't kill the bubbles. A tall glass with ice to the rim keeps the fizz cold.
