Spirit forward doesn’t begin to cover it, this will melt your brain.
But…….. once you pick yourself up off the floor La Tour Eiffel is quite lovely.
2oz Cognac
½ oz Triple Sec
½ oz Suze
Dash Absinthe
Stir everything with a ton of ice until bitterly cold and strain into a sturdy glass that can contain the punchiest of drinks.
This is not for the faint hearted or one to start a evening partying with. This is a 2am putting the world to rights in a fancy leather bound wing chair kind of drink, especially if you don’t have to be anywhere for 2 or 3 days after.
I appreciate that Suze is not something that appears in most peoples drinks cupboard and I probably wouldn’t go out and buy a bottle unless you are like me and have a masochistic streak for horribly bitter drinks!
