Perroquet
Serve in a Collins glass
| 1 oz | Pastis |
| 1⁄4 oz | Monin Green Mint Syrup |

How to make:
POUR pastis and mint syrup into glass. Serve iced water separately in small jug (known in France as a 'broc') so the customer can dilute to their own taste (I recommend five shots). Lastly, add ice to fill glass.
Review:
The traditional French café drink with a hint of sweet mint.
History:
Very popular throughout France, this drink is named after the parrot due to the bird's brightly coloured plumage.
