Friday Night Cocktail

The Green-ish Deacon

This was one of The Cocktail Geek’s drinks of the week, it was the creation of Jim Meehan and is featured in his “PDT Cocktail Book” (which I haven’t read).  It involves absinthe and I don’t have any of that so I didn’t to make it.

Then I got to thinking, what about Pernod, it’s been used in other things as an absinthe substitute, ok it’s not a perfect replacement but why not.

That’s why it’s green-ish..

1.5oz Plymouth gin
1oz grapefruit juice
0.75oz Plymouth sloe gin

Shake and pour into a chilled Pernod rinsed glass.

    A nice little twist subbing the absinthe. Thanks for the link too.
