Great cocktail, best with a very herbal gin.
The little carbonated influence makes this Margarita variation IMHO special and very refreshing. I should have used a homemade grenadine and stayed away from DeKuyper's.
Tried this cocktail stirred (I know ...) and found the Suze a bit too dominant. Next time I will try to balance it better in relations to bourbon. Simon's idea to serve it on the rocks might be perfect.
The combination of absinthe with nutmeg is really great. In my opinion Craddock shaked the nutmeg with the other ingredients. I will try the suggestion to use more rum, but the written version tastes quite balanced.
