Recipe for the No. 2
Even though I said that I was putting my gin away until warm weather returns, this gin, Cointreau, Lillet Blanc and absinthe cocktail is really delicious AND has the creepy name to commemorate either Hallow’s Eve or The Day of the Dead.
Ingredients
- It’s equal parts gin, Cointreau, Lillet Blanc and lemon juice
- 3/4 oz. gin I used Hendrick’s
- 3/4 oz. Cointreau
- 3/4 oz. Lillet Blanc
- 3/4 oz. fresh lemon juice
- a few drops of absinthe or Pernod
- lemon twist for garnish
Instructions
- Squeeze your lemon and put aside. Place first four ingredients in a cocktail shaker with some ice. Shake until cold. Add the drops of absinthe into your cocktail glass and swirl to coat. Pour the shaker contents into the coated cocktail glass and garnish with a twist of lemon peel.
