Ingredients

  • spirit

    Juniper-forward gin with citrus and herbal botanicals.

  • liqueur

    French aperitif wine. Light, floral, citrus-honey.

  • liqueur

    Premium triple sec with a cleaner, sharper orange flavor.

  • fruit

    Always fresh-squeezed. Tart and aromatic — bottled juice does not compare.

Method

  1. Rinse a coupe with absinthe; discard.

  2. Shake remaining ingredients with ice.

  3. Double-strain into the rinsed coupe.

  4. Express orange peel.

Garnish

  • Orange Peel
