| 1⁄2 | oz | Pastis (or less) |
| 1⁄2 | oz | Crème de Violette |
| 1⁄4 | oz | Dry vermouth |

Lemon twist, Stir, Straight Up, Cocktail
Notes
Comments were that less pastis might be needed to avoid overpowering the violette. Also, this predates the R&W Violette -- it looks like a lot to me.

- All I taste is Absinthe. I think this drink could be good, but it would take a lot of experimenting with different brands of absinthe or pastis, and I don't have that kind of money.

The ratios used in the Bartenders Choice App are more in tune with the modern drinkers taste. 2 gin, 3/4 dry Vermouth, 1/4 Violette/Yvette and an Absinthe rinse.
