I haven't tried absinthe, but I don't imagine it would make a good cocktail. From what I understand, the liquor should be lit on fire briefly, in order to release the aromatics. This might work well as a bomb in a light bodied beer, but I really couldn't say, since I haven't tasted it.
Absinthe Margarita
2 oz absinthe
Sour mix
1/2 oz Gran Marnier or triple sec
Lime juice
wedge lime
Splash tequila
Just substitute absinthe for tequila. Salt the rim, fill glass with ice. Pour in the absinthe and sour mix. Splash in some tequila just to kill the ordor and taste of the absinthe. Float the triple sec. Garnish with lime.
