Pernod tastes more like Good-n-Plenty candy to me and can really take over a drink. I'd start with .75 oz (1/2 my portion), taste and then add another 1/4 oz or two depending on taste. All anise flavored spirits and liquors are an acquired taste so go easy at first. I spilled a healthy dash of grenadine in mine by accident but it tasted fine with 1 1/2 ounces of Absinthe. The flavors are well diluted with 8 oz of club soda. [ Edited by: TropicDrinkBoy 2012-04-19 17:25 ]
