Who Is She?

This glass is gorgeous with a graceful gradient to yellow at the bottom.  These pictures do not do her justice, but I assure you she is a stunner.  When I started my journey with this glass I did a weird thing I do when creating cocktails where I just hold the glass up in front of my bar and see if any vibes from booze bottles attach to the glass.  It’s not perfectly scientific but it works sometimes.  This one immediately called for my absinthe.  Seemed like the two were both kind of mysterious and elegant so I decided to create a drink that also felt mysterious and elegant.  I wanted something to ground the absinthe just a little and lemon juice fit that bill.  I also used dry vermouth and pear juice to have a light “what’s that I’m tasting” going on in the background.  The result is a perfectly mysterious and elegant drink that you want to take your time to sip and enjoy.  So pour one of these next time you’re feeling both mysterious and elegant.
