We were struck by the photograph that accompanied the recipe sent to us by this cocktail's creator. The photo was of the cocktail at Burj Al Arab in Dubai...
In an attempt to make a lower abv cocktail I made this with a strong licorice spice herbal tea in place of the Pisco, kept the triple sec, and skipped the absinthe. It’s lovely! (Although it REALLY foamed up over the glass 😂)
Refreshing and herbal. Was perfect before dinner, but would also be outstanding on a warm afternoon. The absinthe is the perfect accent. Hints of pepper and sour all at once. Very easy to drink. On my rotation.
