Italian Job

Last night I found a note from one of the other bartenders, explaining how to make this drink. Looking it up online, however, I found several other versions with the same name, including one with Cointreau, one with cream, and some with both! In any case, I'm going to try this out today and see how it goes. It sounds like it may actually be pretty good, even if it is nothing like the other Italian Jobs of the internet. I expect it is just one of those names that will keep getting used because it references a cool movie. Or rather a cool movie and its somewhat entertaining remake. Perhaps that's what I'll call this: the Italian Job Remake.
