Valentine's 75

glassware: thrifted coupe

As we bid adieu to to dry/damp January, we welcome February (with open arms) with this super boozy-forward Valentine’s day cocktail. As lovely as it was to slow down a bit last month, I’m ready for more absinthe-misted cocktails in my life!

Ingredients:

  • ¼ oz honey

  • ¼ oz grenadine

  • ¾ oz lemon juice

  • 1¼ oz gin

  • 2 dashes of Peychaud’s bitters

  • 2-3 oz prosecco

  • absinthe (for mist/rinse)

  • garnish: thyme sprig

Directions:

In a cocktail shaker, add honey, grenadine, lemon juice, gin, and bitters with ice — shake vigorously for thirty seconds. Strain into an absinthe-misted or rinsed coupe glass and top with Prosecco. Garnish with a fresh thyme sprig.
