If you like chartreuse and want something in a similar vein, I'd highly suggest Strega, an Italian herbal liqueur often stocked on the same shelf as chartreuse.

- klodolph 4y agoNearly every popular branded liqueur or aromatized wine has a number of substitutes available, but it sometimes takes research to know what they are. Easy to find Kahlua alternatives; it’s a coffee liqueur and that’s not hard to find. A little more challenging to find a Campari or Cocchi Americano alternative. There are lots of similar options and it’s not obvious whether an aperitif liqueur is a substitute for Campari or Aperol, for example. Nice to know what the Chartreuse alternatives are.
- Pxtl 4y agoYes. The alcohol world's fixation on everything being strictly-controlled names makes the process of finding substitutes absurdly tedious. Like if I want bourbon but I don't want to support the red states that make it, there's no coherent term for "caramel-tasting corn-heavy whiskey".
