If an Arnold Palmer is iced tea and lemonade, I'm trying to figure out what kind of drink an Amanda Palmer would be. It would probably have to include absinthe.
How about:
"The Amanda Palmer" (aka "La Tour Eiffel" by Gary "Gaz" Regan)
1/4 oz red absinthe
2 1/2 oz XO cognac
1/2 oz Cointreau
1/2 oz Suze
Garnish: lemon twist
1) Pour the absinthe into a chilled Champagne flute, tilting and rotating the glass to coat the interior.
2) Add a few ice cubes to the flute and set aside.
3) Add the cognac, Cointreau and Suze into a mixing glass with fresh ice and stir until well-chilled.
4) Discard the ice and any excess absinthe from the prepared flute and strain the drink into it.
5) Garnish with a lemon twist.

After watching season 2 of Star Trek: Picard, I'd be curious to know what kind of drink an Amanda Plummer would be. I assume it would be red, and you'd serve it with a model set of a Star Trek ship bridge made of gingerbread or graham crackers or waffle cone. After you finish the drink, you immediately eat the confectionery scenery.
