  • Take it easy on the lime, it can easily dominate. Also, don't neglect your stirring.

Craig E commented on 8/10/2014:

Made this with cucumber-infused gin and simple syrup. Very nice. I like the cherry flavors that come out of these Angostura-heavy drinks. Mistakenly served it up, which tasted great but I guess made it disappear too quickly. 5/5

  • Refreshing. Mostly watermelon.
  • Muddled watermelon chunks with the basil, and used chili-infused simple in lieu of the pepper on the rim.

Interesting, the original no longer calls for puree or basil at all, rather watermelon cubes muddled

  • Right up there with the Sazerac; must try if that's your drink
  • A nice take on the drink, has a pleasant zing in there with the booziness. Still prefer a cognac/rye Sazerac.

noksagt commented on 9/24/2019:

Both incarnations are great, but I actually prefer to vermouth-containing one. I think the dilution and extra absinthe both pair with the syrupy sweetness of Benedectine much better.

lesliec commented on 2/28/2022:

We've enjoyed this before as written, but on a whim tonight I subbed the absinthe with some Chartreuse Elixir Vegetal I've had for years and keep forgetting. It might not make the drink better, but try it if you've got some Elixir Vegetal - it certainly doesn't make it worse.
