For 1 servings
Prepare your glass. Chill a coupe or cocktail glass by filling it with ice and water, or by placing it in the freezer for at least 10 minutes before you begin.
In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, Bénédictine, absinthe, and Peychaud's bitters. Measure each ingredient carefully for a balanced flavor.
Fill the shaker three-quarters full with large, solid ice cubes. Seal the shaker tightly.
Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds. The outside of the shaker should become very cold and frosty. This indicates the drink is properly chilled and diluted.
Discard the ice from your chilled glass. Using a Hawthorne strainer and a fine-mesh strainer (double-straining), pour the cocktail from the shaker into the glass. This ensures a silky-smooth texture free of ice chips.
Take the lemon peel and express its oils over the surface of the drink by twisting it skin-side down. Rub the peel around the rim of the glass, then drop it in as a garnish. Serve immediately.

Substitute the Peychaud's Bitters with Angostura bitters for a spicier, more aromatic profile.
Experiment with a Plymouth or Old Tom gin instead of London Dry. Plymouth will give a softer, earthier note, while Old Tom will add a touch of sweetness.
Try an orange peel instead of a lemon peel for a slightly sweeter, warmer citrus aroma that complements the Bénédictine.

Bénédictine D.O.M. is a unique French herbal liqueur made with 27 different herbs and spices. Its flavor is very distinct, and there is no direct substitute. Using another herbal liqueur like Yellow Chartreuse would create a different, but still enjoyable, cocktail.
The cocktail's name is a reference to its potency. Delirium Tremens is a medical term for a severe form of alcohol withdrawal. The name is a classic example of dark humor in cocktail naming, alluding to the drink's strength.
