This is one of the drinks I created to help my friends get into the unusual taste of absinthe. Since tequila is already one of the more sour spirits, I thought that a margarita might be able to handle a substitution with the notoriously bitter flavor of absinthe, and what I came up with is a nice sweet and sour drink wth an herbal bite.

 Invented by Marcus J., a bartender at The Plant in north Idaho, the Absolut Manx Whore was created for his onetime love interest, Anna C., a student from the Isle of Man. The drink has become quite popular at The Plant, as patrons share in his sweet tasting homage to Anna, an absolute Manx whore.
