I always thought that no cognac cocktail could be better than a sidecar. This proved me wrong! Absolut perfect balance of sweet, sour, herbal and fruity.

If you - like me - love absinthe.

This is for you!
Exceptional drink! My wife thought it was the worst.
But she´s no fan of absinthe.

I used 2 whole figs (had to, because they were imported and therefore a bit less aromatic) local harvested honey and 5 ml of homemade grenadine. The result was a very sweet drink, thick with figpulp (even if i doublestrained it) and with a
subtle taste of cognac. Sounds weird, but tasted great!

In the beginning, this was mediocre. As time went by, it was refreshing and really nice. Truly "a long drink".
