History

A luxuriously rich whiskey sour with absinthe, aromatic bitters and mint.

Dushan Zarić and Jason Kosmas created a drink circa 2011 at Employees Only in Manhattan, New York City, USA, from which this is adapted. Their original recipe featured Wild Turkey Rare Breed Bourbon and did not include rye. Instead of absinthe, bitters, and mint, it called for Employees Only's own 'Absinthe Bitters,' a mixture of absinthe, Green Chartreuse, Peychaud's bitters, Angostura bitters, and Fee Brothers Mint bitters.
