There is a drink at Donn’s Depot in Austin, TX called the Moldy Fruitcake. It’s a mix of Crème de Menthe and Malort. This might be worse.

Phew..! This is 2 drinks folks, not one, and they’re 2 stiff drinks at that. Made per recipe direction — blah. Nothing interesting going on here. I added a splash of OJ and a glut of orgeat. Now we’re talkin!

Made a sour version of this- used tequila plus rum in highball glasses. Added about 6oz of oj, 6oz of seltzer, 1.5 limes and 0.5 lemons.
