Adjusting recipe: Briga de Foice

I´m pretty sure I had .75 Oz of Orgeat on the Briga de Foice recipe.
Probably my fault here, it was a looong TDN…
Add that Orgeat and give it a try! It´s a lovely drink!

The Yardarm recipe is lacking the 1/4 oz absinthe/pastis float.

Frederic,
that was my oversight, didn’t see the second tweet for the Yardarm in the mixo twitter feed.

Tony,
I’ve updated the Briga de Foice recipe per yer request, since I was fixing up the Yardarm anyway.
