Any Absinthe Drinkers?
 

Any Absinthe drinkers out there? I have a friend that is sure it's going to open up his mind to the Green Fairy however I'm skeptical. He wants to just take a shot of it however I've been reading that it should be mixed with water over a sugar cube or mixed with simple syrup. I got a bottle at the Gomers near me and it wasn't cheap.

Suggestions?

Rinse your glass with it and fill with a Sazerac. Perfect usage of that stuff.

Isn't that made out of bat poop?

It doesn't have any special/unusual properties beyond normal alcohol, but if you're going to drink it, might as well read some Rimbaud.

Have to make sure it's made with wormwood to have any chance of being trippy

No analysis has determined that absinthe has any hallucinogenic properties.

Just throw back some Malört and fight your dad instead.

I've read about it and according to the information, the effects regarding it are more than likely due to the fact that heroin and cocaine were made illegal two years after absinthe.

My friend gets sick just taking a small shot of a decent scotch. It sounds like it tastes like a really bitter black licorice mixed with tree bark. I will have a trash can handy.

I'd rather drink soju.

This right here is fair warning.

Wise man. Still, I'd recommend that you read Rimbaud. Highly influential on Bob Dylan, actually.

overrated....doesn't do shit

Ha ha I remember that now. Remember it was conversation here before.

Good times.

Why buy it if you don’t think you’ll enjoy it?

You don't see green fairies

You don't hallucinate or trip your ass off

It tastes like really strong Jagermeister and it will get you sick before you drink enough of it to get your buzz.
