1 ounce Fino Sherry, like Noilly Prat [4]
1/4 ounce maraschino liqueur [5]
2 dashes orange bitters
Crushed ice
Whole ice cubes
3 spritzes absinthe, in a spray bottle [6]
Lemon peel
Lemon twist, for garnish
Directions
- In a large mixing glass [7] or the base of a cocktail shaker, combine gin, sherry, maraschino liqueur, orange biters, and crushed ice. Top with whole ice, and stir until chilled.
- Spray glass with absinthe, and strain cocktail into the glass. Twist lemon peel over glass to release essential oils. Garnish with a lemon twist.
