2 tsp Pineau de Charentes
2 tsp Giffard Abricot du Roussillon
2 dashes Peychaud bitters
Absinthe rinse

Yield:

Step 1: Add all ingredients except absinthe to a mixing glass. Add ice and stir for about 30 seconds.

Step 2: Take a chilled cocktail glass and rinse with absinthe. Discard the remaining absinthe and strain the cocktail from the mixing glass into the cocktail glass.

Step 3: Take a lemon peel and remove the white pith from the peel. Squeeze the peel over the glass and garnish.
