Third Degree Cocktail


I picked a 'Third Degree Cocktail' tonight. It is a gin based cocktail and different from those we've tried the last several days. Olga and I enjoyed this drink. I think we've gotten used to and like the taste Absinthe imparts to cocktails.

The recipe (page 171 from our Bartender's Guide):

1 1/2 oz Gin
3/4 oz Dry Vermouth
1 teaspoon Absinthe
Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass.

The sign above was given to us by our daughter several years ago and is now the name of my blog, and has become the "unofficial" name of the cul-de-sac we live in.

This is a better picture of the drink:

Enjoy!
