Absynth for Halloween

[AdD 1]

So what's the best drink to mix with this stuff? Has anyone got stories about their absynth experiences?

Make a B52, replacing the grand mariner with good absinthe.

If you want to be brave, float the absinthe on top, light it, and drink the flaming shooter through a straw.

Or, just water, sugar, and a lighter are fine and dandy.

Do a search, there's been few threads about absinthe. Be VERY CAREFUL with it though. And remember that you can not purchase it in the US!

"For once you have tasted Absinthe you will walk the earth with your eyes turned towards the gutter, for there you have been and there you will long to return."

No shit there we were one evening at a DZ...

Four people... one bottle of absinthe... gone in 45 minutes... (It seeemed like such a good idea at the time!)

We tried the old trick of lighting sugar in a teaspoon, then dropping that in absinthe and drinking it - but we were a bit too drunk to get that to work!

The aftermath was complete carnage. As I left, I remember seeing one guy passed out on another guy's bed with his head in a bucket... apparently one of them woke up to find themselves cuddling the other one's foot!

As for me - I was literally green when I woke up and felt like I'd died all day. I was also in big trouble with the DZ Manager because 2 of the people I'd wiped out with absinthe were on the DZ staff!

Never again!

Water - that's how it's ment to be drunk. There may well be cocktails out there with it as an ingrediant but I like it as it was intended.

It's cool to make a green liquid go milky white with the addition of a clear liquid.
