For an extra chill, pre-chill your cocktail glass in the freezer for at least 30 minutes before preparing the drink. The quality of your ingredients matters. Use a high-quality gin and fresh lemon juice for the best flavor. Adjust the amount of absinthe to your personal preference. A little goes a long way! If you don't have Lillet blanc, Cocchi Americano is a suitable substitute. Express the oil of a lemon peel over the drink before garnishing with the cherry for added citrus aroma.
