21st Century Cocktail

PH factor: 8.5

Recipe

Ingredients:

Cocktail     

o ¼ ounce Pernod Absinthe

Supérieure

o 2 ounces 1800 Silver tequila

o ¾ ounce light Crème de

Cacao

o ¾ ounce fresh lemon juice

Garnish

o lemon peel

Method:

1. Swirl absinthe to coat the

inside of a chilled cocktail

glass and discard the excess.

2. Shake remaining cocktail

ingredients over ice.

3. Serve up in the prepared

glass.

4. Garnish with lemon peel.

Remarks:

The taste of this cocktail is not

easy to describe. At first it's too

lemony. Then it's the chocolate

that comes forward. As it ends,

it’s all about the absinthe. Being

difficult to describe isn't such a

a bad thing.
