Method

How to make Coessential

Follow the 6 reviewed catalog steps in order.

  1. 01

    Pre-chill one clear coupe and reserve the smallest pristine mint leaf from the measured eight leaves for garnish.

  2. 02

    Place the remaining seven mint leaves in a shaker and add 60 ml vodka, 15 ml white crème de cacao, and 5 ml absinthe.

  3. 03

    Fill the shaker about three-quarters full with solid cold ice and seal it firmly.

  4. 04

    Shake hard for 10–12 seconds to chill the drink and extract fresh mint aroma without shredding the leaves excessively.

  5. 05

    Fine-strain into the chilled coupe so no mint fragments or ice shards enter the glass.

  6. 06

    Float the single reserved mint leaf flat at the center of the liquid and serve without another garnish.
