"After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, and that is the most horrible thing in the world."
--Oscar Wilde
The Kaleidoscope
A mixing-glass with some cracked ice,
* 1 pony of absinthe
* 1 pony of vino vermouth
* 3 dashes of maraschino
* 3 dashes of benedictine
* 3 dashes of curacao
* 3 dashes of crême de cocoa
Shake to the freezing-point; strain into a fine wineglass, and serve.
