Wanting the cocktail a little more sour, upped the Apricot Liqueur by 1/2 and left out the cane syrup. It is still a bit on the sweet side, but with a tang. Very nice.
For us this is perfect.
As lovers of absinthe, it is excellent. It enhanced the flavours of the gin. Very spirit forward and you MUST like absinthe to appreciate the balance of the cocktail. Would definitely make it again.
