This strong yet simple absinthe cocktail dates back to pre-prohibition days. The Absinthe Frappé was known as an apéritif and an acceptable morning pick-me-up. It now lacks any of its notorious hallucinogenic properties but still packs a high-proof punch. Refreshing, powerful, and simple, it’s easy sipping for those who enjoy its licorice flavor.
Two other classics that use that same distinguishing ingredient is Death in the Afternoon and the Corpse Reviver No. 2
