How to Make a Mickey Slim Cocktail
Mickey Slim Cocktail is a simple drink that is made with absinthe, sugar cube and gin. This cocktail was used to be quite in style in the 1940’s-1950. However, its popularity was short-lived as Mickey Slim Cocktail was banned in the bars of many countries because of the use of DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) which is an insecticide and is injurious for human health. Later on, the DDT was replaced with absinthe, a highly alcoholic distilled beverage. However, majority of consumers describe absinthe more or less same as the DDT. As both of the ingredients contain high ratio of alcoholic ingredients, it is better to keep it away from the access of kids or young drinkers.
Traditionally, Mickey Slim Cocktail is dished up in a simple old-fashioned cocktail glass along a fresh fruit wedge. This simple recipe makes just one cocktail but you can increase the amount of ingredients if you want to make more drinks. You just have to multiply the below mentioned quantities of the ingredients into the number of your guests.
