Instructions

  1. Fill a highball glass with ice.
  2. Press the mint gently in a shaker, just enough to release its aroma without tearing it.
  3. Add the lime juice, vodka, simple syrup and absinthe, then fill with ice and shake.
  4. Fine strain into the ice-filled glass.
  5. Top with equal parts club soda and lemon-lime soda.
  6. Garnish with a mint sprig.
