Cocktail Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Start by chilling a coupe or cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a mixing glass, combine the dry French vermouth, Benedictine, and absinthe.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Empty the ice water from your chilled glass and strain the mixture into the glass.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Finish with a twist of lemon peel over the drink to release its oils, then drop it into the glass as garnish.
