Step 1

Make the Ginger Syrup: In a small saucepan, sugar, ginger, and 1⁄4 cup water to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook until the syrup reduces to 1⁄4 cup, about 6 minutes. Remove the syrup from the heat, pour through a fine sieve into a small pitcher, and discard the ginger.

Step 2

For the Cocktail: Pour absinthe, orange juice, and lime juice into the pitcher with ginger syrup, stir to combine, and refrigerate until chilled. Pour 3 tablespoons each of the juice mix into 8 chilled coupes or flutes and top with champagne. Garnish each glass with a lemon twist before serving.
