1
Chill the Glass
Begin by chilling your absinthe glass in the freezer for about 10 minutes to ensure your drink stays cold.
2
Measure the Absinthe
Pour 1.5 oz of Lucid Absinthe Superieur and 1.5 oz of Pernod Absinthe into the chilled glass.
3
Prepare the Sugar
Place a sugar cube on an absinthe spoon over the glass with absinthe. If you prefer a sweeter drink, you can use more sugar.
4
Add Water
Slowly pour about 3 oz of cold water over the sugar cube. As the water dissolves the sugar, it will mix with the absinthe, creating a milky effect known as the 'louche'.
5
Add Ice
Add ice cubes to the drink to chill it further and enhance the experience.
6
Serve and Enjoy
Stir gently and enjoy your absinthe slowly, savoring the complex flavors.
