- 1/2 oz absinthe
- 2 oz Rye whiskey (I like Van Winkle)
- 1 sugar cube
- 4 dashes peychauds bitters
- 1 lemon twist
Fill a rocksglass with ice and water and set aside. Place the sugar cube in a second glass and splash with bitters. Crush the cube with a spoon and pour in the rye. add ice to the whiskey. Now dump the ice from the first glass and pour in the absinthe. Give a good swirl and dump it out. Now strain the rye into the absinthe washed glass and garnish the the lemon twist. Now make one for a friend and enjoy.
Also in the coming week we are introducing some new vegetative cocktails at Supper. You all should come in and check them out. We have a Rhubarb infuced gin and pepper juice drink and avocade maragarita thing and a sangria made with beet juice. They sound a bit odd but knowing Theo they should be tasty.

Every time you talk about cocktails I always think of the experience you once related in college when you went to a bar and asked for a mint julep or something and the bartender looked it up and said "well we're fresh out of f***ing mint leaves, I can tell you that!!" :) Loving your blog, my friend!!
