This cocktail recipe was created by David Slape, one of the bartenders at New York City's PDT, which took home our inaugural Outstanding Bar Program award in 2012.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 ounce absinthe
  • 1 1/2 ounces white rum (preferably Banks 5 Island brand)

  • 1/2 ounce grapefruit juice
  • 1/2 ounce lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon orange marmalade
  • Grapefruit twist for garnish

Method

Pour the absinthe into a chilled coupe glass. Swirl and tip the glass to fully coat its inner surface with the spirit. Pour out the absinthe and set aside the rinsed glass.
