The Modernista (also known as the Modern Maid Cocktail) is a scotch-pastis/absinthe cocktail.[1] It is a bitter cocktail with proportions of rum-based Swedish Punsch. This is a sophisticated challenging beverage made by:

Preparation

  • 2 ounces (1/2 gill, 6 cl) Scotch
  • 1/2 ounce (1/8 gill, 1.5 cl) Dark Jamaican rum
  • 1 teaspoon absinthe or pastis (Pernod, herbsaint, and ricard all work)
  • 1/2 ounce (1/8 gill, 1.5 cl) Swedish Punsch (May be substituted with any flavoured rum.[2])
  • 1/2 ounce (1/8 gill, 1.5 cl) fresh lemon juice
  • 2 dashes orange bitters
  • Shake in an iced cocktail shaker, and strain into cocktail glass.
  • Add a lemon twist
