Absinthe: Missing
Sugar: Missing
Water: Missing
This measured preparation uses commercial absinthe rather than a homemade herb infusion. Cold water is added gradually, opening the anise aroma and producing the characteristic cloudy appearance. A small amount of sugar rounds the bitterness, while the four-to-one water ratio gives a consistent dilution for the serving.
