Absinthe

[Zhizara]

Thank you Nicholas. That was very good. I like Anthony Bourdain.

I've had it a few times. In London over sugar, at home over sugar. Right after it came out a friend bought a bottle. At a party I spent the better part of the night trying to come up with a drink that anyone thought was actually good. I never found one. I did have a very good time though.

Then, I went to a local restaurant that serves it by rinsing the glass with it before adding the drink. I had a mojito in a glass rinsed (swirled) with absinthe.

That was quite good. I'll never buy it though, not to my taste and very expensive. $80 for 750 ml.

I, of course, didn't have the wormwood kind.
