Psychedelic Jellyfish Absinthe + Lavender Mint Gin - The Cat's Pajamas
the silkiest smooth martini, milk washing leaves behind a clarified cocktail with a sensuous mouthfeel. This recipe makes 12x 2oz cocktails but can be scaled up for a larger number. Clarified cocktails should keep indefinitely, but to be safe we recommend drinking within 2 months
TASTE: Refreshing, Anise, Floral, Silky
INGREDIENTS:
- 12 parts Lavender Mint Gin

- 6 oz Whole Milk
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Combine Gin, Absinthe, Lemon, and Simple Syrup in nonreactive (ie: glass or plastic) container. Stir well.
- Add Whole Milk and give a gentle stir, let sit undisturbed for 30 minutes as the milk curdles.

TO SERVE:
