I don't have pastis, just absinthe - so I used 1/2 oz (homemade) orgeat as the base is unsweetened.

Interesting drink. Not sure I'll have it again, but not sure I won't. It's not bad, and I like both absinthe and orgeat, but it isn't exactly singing to me either.

I find Pastis taste better with still water than with sparkling. I tried both with and without orgeat. The mineral or slightly metallic taste of soda does not do well with the liquorice-anis.
