Tried this tonight and have three comments. First, this is an excellent cocktail. Second, should anyone have reservations with added dilution if using "dry" ice, it very much benefits this drink. Lastly, if you love absinthe as I do, don't double the amount as I did (see De La Louisiane #2 which does use double the amount suggested here); I suggest you don't! It overpowered this otherwise lovely cocktail.

As a fellow absinthe lover I’d recommend rinsing the glass with absinthe instead of mixing it in- makes the absinthe more present without being overpowering. In fact, sounds so good I’m going to make one now!
