Put a coupe or martini glass into the fridge to chill. Pour the sake, vermouth, triple sec and lemon juice into a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Splash in two dashes of absinthe, then shake vigorously for approximately 10 seconds.
STEP 2
Strain the cocktail through a fine mesh strainer into the chilled coupe or martini glass. Garnish with a star anise.
