Is the amount of creme de violette perhaps a typo? Should probably be 1/2 oz, not 1/12, I think.

1/12 oz is correct and is equal to 2.5ml (approx. 1/4 a barspoon). Metric measures are more straightforward. Please click on "measures & measuring" under the recipe above for more info.

Is the Gaige citation correct? The recipe is quite different in proportions.

Did take one of Nanda Sandhu's recommendations and did an additional spray of absinthe on the top. It did get rid a little of the violet floral taste, with it remaining in the background.

I've been making these with a variation with a spray of orange bitters and a spray of absinthe at the end.

Particularly if you are making a mini-version (half quantities) be very careful with the absinthe and creme de violette quantities, as this is critical to the balance of this flavoursome cocktail
