The End of Something

1 oz Absinthe
1 oz Grapefruit juice (Pink preferably)
1 oz Elderflower liqueur, St. Germain
2 oz Champagne (2-3 oz sparkling wine to top)
1 twst Grapefruit peel (as garnish)
Instructions

Shake the absinthe, grapefruit juice, and elderflower liqueur with ice, strain into a flute with 2-3 oz dry sparkling wine, and garnish with a grapefruit twist.

Notes

I have since done this with the elderflower split 50:50 with honey syrup (1:1) with good effect.

History

At work, the general manager of Menton (our sister restaurant) asked if there was a secret to making the Death in the Afternoon a good drink. I replied that there really was not; basically, either you enjoy the combination or you do not. Then that evening at Drink, a guest asked for an absinthe cocktail. I then recalled how well absinthe paired with pink grapefruit juice via one of the drinks at the Kübler Absinthe release party here in Boston pushed on me by woodland nymph characters circa October 2007. With that, I added elderflower liqueur to take the mix in a Bohemian direction, and cava to circle back to the conversation earlier that afternoon. For a name, I dubbed this one The End of Something after a short story by Ernest Hemingway as a nod to the Death in the Afternoon inspiration.

Close Enough For Jazz

2 oz Gin
3⁄4 oz Fino sherry (Or Manzanilla)
1⁄4 oz Honey syrup (1:1)
1 rinse Absinthe
1 twst Lemon peel (As garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a coupe rinsed with absinthe, and garnish with a lemon twist.

History

After having a drink called Close But No Cigar (see link in "source reference"), I was inspired by the combination of Manzanilla sherry and honey in that Manhattan riff. I wondered how it would do in a Martini riff; I had used a 3:1 dry vermouth to syrup ratio in the As Perfect as a Limerick at Nahita, and I knew that it would come across like blanc vermouth. To round off the combination, I added an absinthe rinse instead of the inspiration's Peychaud's Bitters in the mix and the Scotch rinse, and in keeping close to the original in name, I dubbed this one Close Enough for Jazz.
