Like the Incredible Hulk, this drink packs a dangerous green punch - a whisky-laced, minty, Carthusian green punch.

As all the ingredients are clear, I’m surprised this is shaken, not stirred. Craddock doesn’t seem to specify, which I thought meant it was stirred. You learn something new every day.

Very good after dinner drink.
Had it two ways. Once to the recipe, and once adding 1 tsp Pernod Absinthe. Second one was great and had a slight cocoa aftertaste. Would recommend.
