I'm going to show you an absinthe cocktail - the momisette! In french, momisette means "little mummy". There are zero mummies in this drink. This is a simple absinthe cocktail combining two flavors that compliment each other beautifully (anise and almond). If you need a good orgeat, feel free to try my easy recipe - it really shines in this drink! The momisette is sweet and herbal with a refreshing brightness that'll have you wanting another sip. I hope you enjoy the "little mummy" as much as I do! Cheers!
How to Make the Momisette
Licorice - If you like it, you love it.
In the middle there is an almond-y sweetness.
Refreshing!
Sips
Lets go for a Collins glass on this one, and chill it ahead of time.
Prepare an ice spear if possible or large chunks of ice.
When picking your sparkling water go for something with thats extra bubbly.
