Cocktail glass
Absinthe and grenadine is a high-contrast pairing — pomegranate sweetness rounding off absinthe's bitter, herbal edge, with each holding the other in check. The Monkey Gland is the canonical entry point, gin and orange softening both flavours into something brunch-friendly. The Zombie Punch goes the opposite way, burying a few dashes in a long tropical build. Nine cocktails sit on this combo, spread across stirred classics and bigger party recipes where absinthe works as a back-note rather than the headline.
