It's about twice the price of Drambuie but it's easily found on the net,

It's too bad you feel that way, but I can definitely understand why you do.

As a matter of fact, I did go back to my Walking Tacos the next day, made two medium-sizes ones, made a couple of other items as well for afternoon snacking for 25 people and they were a big hit.

As far as being worlds apart, you couldn't be more correct.
