Pour Ricard into a tall glass, add five to seven parts cold water and finish with ice to watch the golden spirit turn milky and cloudy. The traditional serve opens concentrated anise and liquorice into a long, refreshing drink, perfect with cold cuts, tapenade or pistachio nuts as a classic French aperitif ritual.
