The French Pearl The French Pearl is another great creation of Audrey Saunders of New York City. It is sweet, but not sweet in the sense of the typical sweet cocktails, this one is what I would call botanically sweet. There is the rich Plymouth Gin, the aromatic Pernod Absinthe, which is chilled by fresh mint, then a little rock candy syrup for flavor and fun. The lime brings it all together with a touch of sour and citrus, though I do caution you to avoid using a sweetened lime juice because the cocktail will be too sweet. With all of these great flavors combined, the French Pearl is a great drink, especially for Valentine's Day. Prep Time: 2 minutes Total Time: 2 minutes Ingredients:
