The secret to always getting the right amount of Pernod is to double or quadruple or whatever-le the recipe until you have a reasonably measurable amount to mix. If the recipe calls for 1/8 teaspoon, make four of them. Half a teaspoon is far easier to measure. And always measure the Pernod somewhere besides over the cocktail shaker! And make it one of the early things you add before the booze so you don't waste good booze on a bad Pernod pour...
