This is an enjoyable palate cleanser, quite original in terms of the ingredients. Apple and absinthe works like a charm.

Agree. I realize that I love all cocktails with this combination. If you haven't tried it yet, just try Triple A cocktail: https://www.diffordsguide.com/cocktails/recipe/3416/triple-a
