With that said, I would guess that if you went with a scant teaspoon of Sambuca, it would be a close approximation. A dash of orange or other bitters might help add a hair bit of an edge as well. Good luck. Let us know if you decide to try it. M In an ideal world, I would have a Ferrari, my wife would have some who did the dishes more reliably and this cocktail would have Absinthe.
