This drink is REALLY soothing for a sore throat because of the menthe in the absinthe. It's a great alternative to those weird green throat sprays. It's also just a super nice way to enjoy absinthe on cold days. In my opinion, it tastes exactly like how I used to wish Christmas trees tasted. When I was little I once tried to eat a pinecone. This is what I was hoping it would taste like!

1/2 oz absinthe herbal liqueur
1 1/2 oz cranberry juice
boiling water
1 squirt lemon juice
1 cinnamon stick
honey to taste

Pour the absinthe into the coffee mug. Add the cranberry juice and fill the mug up most of the rest of the way with the hot water. Add lemon juice and honey to taste (be prepared to use a lot of honey). Break the cinnamon stick in half and leave it in the mug to soak as you drink it.
