The Gemini cocktail has a complex flavor, thanks to the black licorice flavor of the Galliano blended with the orange of Grand Marnier, plus a touch of cognac and lemonade.

This is a wonderful cocktail for sipping along by itself. It does pair well with a lot of meals or snacks, but it’s such an interesting flavor on its own – it’s almost a pity to mix it with other flavors.
