Absinthe The Green Fairy




No spirit has earned a worse rap than Absinthe aka the Green Fairy. Said to make the drinker hallucinate and rumoured to be responsible for Van Gogh's ear incident. It was banned in the US and much of Europe in the early 1900s. Now made with modified recipie Absinthe is making a come back.

My favourite way to drink this is: Set an Absinthe spoon or a regular fork for most people across the top of the glass. Place a sugar cube in the spoon and drip filtered water over the sugar into the glass. As the two mix, the drink turns cloudy. For extra showmanship, add a few dashes of absinthe to the sugar cube, ignite, pause to take a quick photo, then continue with the water drip.
