For example (and I would always eyeball the measurements), if I ran out of Appleton Estates Extra, I could take a shot of VX and by adding just the right amount of Coruba turn it into something that passed pretty well for Extra. We're talking drops of Coruba added to a shot of whatever. I've done this as well to stretch out a bottle of VX. Turns out rather nice. Anyhow, I enjoy Coruba in anything with lots of fruit juice.
