  • Wow. Brilliant.
  • Funky and nutty.
  • Really damn tasty. Amazing what just a few drops of absinthe add to this.
  • Absinthe brings out vegetal/grassy notes in the tequila. Made with Pineapple juice/simple instead of pineapple syrup, but that is an ingenius sweetening agent and citrusy complement to the lemon juice.
  • Delish. On the big side. — ★★★★★

Dan commented on 7/12/2014:

FrogPrincess on eGullet reports that even 1/4oz of syrup is plenty and perhaps none even better.

DrunkLab commented on 7/12/2014:

I would start with a teaspoon for mouthfeel and balance and add more to taste, though I agree that 1/2 oz is overkill.

  • Room for Rhubarb?? Maybe less Fernet as well
  • Next time try 1/4 oz Luxardo and 3/8 oz 2:1 simple syrup.
  • Used 2 oz gin 1 oz maraschino
  • Made with Bulldog gin. Boosted the lime a little to make up for running short on grapefruit. Stayed very layered so (assuming no straw) the first sip is pure fernet. Really delicious after that. — ★★★★★

  • Superbly balanced, universally liked, accessible to the novice but complex enough to reward a more experienced palate, with layered aromatics but a tart bite.
