Galapagos, Absinthe Brasserie

Absinthe Brasserie in San Francisco is my favorite place to drink a cocktail in the Hayes Valley neighborhood of San Francisco.  They have an extensive list of cocktails with all types of liquors. The Galapagos is my go to cocktail at Absinthe when I find myself in a rare indecisive moment. Although the Galapagos is pisco based, it's not overly sweet like most pisco cocktails. The citrus and pepper flavors serve as the backdrop for this unique drink. The sweetest part of the drink, the sunken brandied cherries.

From the cocktail menu, "Pisco, kaffir lime leaf and pepper syrup, lemon-lime juice, a splash of grapefruit juice.  Shaken & served up with sunken brandied cherries. This is a Xanadoozle creation, named in honor of Kurt Vonngut's eponymous modern classic."
