Deathly Fizz

The Deathly Fizz, allegedly created by Ernest Hemingway, mirrors the title of the author's famous discourse on bullfighting. This effervescent and robust cocktail is a simple combination of absinthe and champagne, with Pernod as a suitable alternative when absinthe is unavailable. Be cautious, as indulging in too many of these during the day might lead to a challenging evening ahead.
