Death in the Afternoon Cocktail
The Death in the Afternoon is a two-ingredient cocktail made with absinthe and brut Champagne. The drink is built in a coupe glass or flute and served without a garnish.
In a very Hemingway fashion, he adds, “Drink 3 to 5 of these slowly.” The book’s editors, Sterling North and Carl Krotch, offer a tongue-in-cheek note at the end of the recipe, “after six of these cocktails The Sun Also Rises.”
Ingredients
  • ½ ounce absinthe (such as St. George Absinthe Verte)
  • 4 ounces chilled brut Champagne
