Green Opal Cocktail

For those of us who enjoy a taste of liquorice once in a while, as I do, here is another Absinthe Substitute cocktail, a 'Green Opal Cocktail'.

The recipe (page 95 of the Bartender's Guide).

1/2 oz Gin (Booth's)
1/2 oz Anisette (LeRoux)
1 oz Absinthe Substitute (Pernod)

Shake with ice and strain into cocktail glass.

I enjoy Pernod or Absinthe just mixed with water so this cocktail was good, per my taste. Actually better than the water mix.

Cheers!
