The ladies of LUPEC Boston are gearing up for our annual excursion to New Orleans for Tales of the Cocktail. For five days we will be learning about everything from Shochu to sensory perception. And for five nights we will be eating, drinking and dancing at our favorite haunts. Sounds like something real close to heaven. So to get us in the mood let’s pour out a tasty, low alcohol cocktail from one of NOLA’s finest restaurants, Herbsaint.
HALF SINNER, HALF SAINT
2 oz French Vermouth
2 oz Dry Vermouth
5 oz Herbsaint
lemon twist
In a rocks glass combine the vermouths over ice. Float the Herbsaint. Garnish with the lemon twist.
Cheers!

while a lemon twist is a fine substitute, the way i see it the half sinner, half saint is really best “garnished” with a large helping of buffalo frogs’ legs.

Holy crap! Five oz herbsaint is low alcohol?! It’s 90 proof!
Since it’s a rocks glass, I’d try it at 1/2 oz. 😉 Still not really LOW alcohol, but a lot more survivable, lol
