• 60 ml dry vermouth
  • 20 ml Bénédictine liqueur
  • half barspoon absinthe

Stir with ice and a lemon peel. Serve with a lemon twist.

I just bought a bottle of Bénédictine, and I was excited to try it in a cocktail, as I really like it straight. This works well with the vermouth as a aperitif drink.

The absinthe is strangely not that noticeable, even though it usually tends to be one of the first flavor I taste. I might increase it a bit next time, as I do like it quite a lot haha.

Bénédictine is 40%, so overall a fairly low alcohol content (even though there is no juice or mixer). It means it is ok on a Thursday ^^
