  • 7.5ml Orange Liqueur

Rim a cocktail glass with a lemon wedge and dust caster sugar over to stick to the side. Shake all ingredients with ice and double strain into the glass with a large lemon peel garnish.

Add ice to an old fashioned glass with Absinthe and top with water to chill while preparing the rest of the ingredients. Add the Cognac, Rye, Sugar and Bitters to a mixing glass and stir with ice until chilled. Discard the ice and absinthe from the Old Fashioned glass (pour into another glass as a chaser!) and strain cocktail into chilled glass.
