Monkey Heads Remix

Don’t get me wrong. The original recipe is actually really good.

But I wanted to see, if I couldn’t improve it somehow and maybe make it a little bit more European.

So the first I did was to switch out FW Black Licorice with CAP Licorice. I find that CAP Licorice has a more true European taste to it than its counterpart FW has. It’s probably the most European style black licorice you can find on the market in current state.

I wanted to fiddle with the banana part too. I find VT Banana Custard a much more fitting flavor to use, as it’s a little bit more gooey in texture that will support the marshmallow, plus the banana flavor is a little more candy-ish.

Changed the CAP Super Sweet to fit the more modern devices.

Skipped touching TFA Marshmallow as I find it does exactly what it should do in the original recipe.

1 day steep to polish off the sharp edges, but works perfectly fine as SnV if you don’t mind the sharpness of CAP Licorice.
