  • Recipe I saw used 0.5 oz lime and served up. Excellent
  • Great drink from Milk and Honey. Stay away if you hate the taste of licorice but to those who don't mind it, it's a great introduction to an absinthe forward cocktail.

Comments

As others have noted, there are slight differences between these measurements and the ones that were in the "Regarding Cocktails" book. 0.50 oz of lime juice and served in a coupe were the differences.
That said, this is a brilliant cocktail either way. Gimmie!
