4 ounces chilled Champagne
"Pour one jigger absinthe into a champagne glass. Add iced champagne until it attains the proper opalescent milkiness. Drink three to five of these slowly".
---Hemingway
Death in the Afternoon is one of my highly recommended easy Halloween cocktail recipes.

It feels like a sort of sinister potion, leaving you exhilarated without going over the top.
