This classic 1917 cocktail offers a refreshing and potent anise-forward experience, blending the distinct herbal notes of absinthe with the sweet, honeyed complexity of Bénédictine. Served ice-cold, the drink is shaken until frosty to create a crisp, invigorating texture that perfectly balances the intense botanical flavors. Ideally enjoyed as an elegant aperitif, this frappe delivers a sophisticated chill perfect for warm evenings.
