Prep: 10 mins
plus freezing
Easy Serves 1
Ingredients
2 drops of absinthe (we used Pernod)
30ml rye whiskey (we used Michter’s)
30ml cognac (we used Rémy Martin VSOP)
2 drops of Peychaud’s bitters
5ml sugar syrup
1 strip of lemon peel, to garnish
Method
Step 1 Put a tumbler in the freezer. When it’s freezing cold, pour in the
absinthe, swirl it so it thinly coats the inside of the glass, then tip
it away. This is called rinsing.
Step 2 Stir the remaining ingredients, except the lemon peel garnish,
together in a mixing glass, then strain into the prepared tumbler.
Step 3 Garnish with the lemon peel and serve
