A frozen riff on the classic absinthe frappe, this slushy cocktail tempers the spirit's assertive anise character with bright citrus and subtle stone fruit sweetness. The generous mint amplifies the drink's cooling effect while harmonizing with absinthe's herbal complexity. The result is dangerously refreshing—a deceptively smooth sipper that masks its potency behind a veil of garden-fresh aromatics.
