Should Absinthe be legalized

please do research and dont just trust the word of some random strager on some internet forum dedicated to movies, especially when dealing with potentially dangerous substances.

I am not wrong. I have always done it that way. It has been done that way without water involved.

im glad for you. but you are doing it WRONG.
research it ffs.

1.Pour approximately one shot into a glass.

2.Use your absinthe spoon or a fork and place a single sugar cube on the fork. Balance the fork on the top of the glass.

3.Take about three times (3 shots) the amount of CHILLED water and SLOWLY DRIZZLE IT OVER THE CUBE AS YOU WATCH THE SUGAR GRANULES DRIP INTO THE ABSINTHE. YOU WILL SEE A CLOUD OR LOUCHE OF, PERHAPS, WHITE, PEARLY, GRAY COLOR.

4. Let the movement of the water, the sparkle of the sugar and the opalescence of the color mesmerize you. When the sugar cube is dissolved, sit back into a comfy chair and SIP the ELIXIR.

5.Notice its initial flavor and ,also, the progression of subtle tongue changes in the swallow and a few moments later, fantastic taste sensations.

6.Depending on your size and normal liquor intake you may drink 1-4 shots in the same way.

The only research I do is in a bar. Water is for goldfish.

I don't know what the situation in Blighty is now, but during my student days, I worked in a bar. We were only allowed to serve people 2 glasses of absinthe, after which they would receive a stamp on their hand to show they were not allowed any more. It's a pretty stupid rule seeing as you could drink a whole bottle of vodka without getting a little stamp.

Is this still the case?

I don't think so, it's available to buy in shops.

I wonder what happens if you omit this part.

I dont hold it. Just down it straight away. It still tastes horrible, but well worth the tipple.

Having said that, the last time I did absinthe was some 4 months ago. I stick to beer & wine lately.

"hold your liquor" is just an expression for the ability to drink alot of liquor and not fall over.

Just curious, how many shots did you do?

Of course fall is over, it's winter.

A small bottle. That would be 2 shots.

ok, look. if you want to end up in the exact same situation as last time, try GCG's method. the only difference is your drink will have a sweeter flavor. but trust me, you will meet the same end.

or you can utilise your favorite search engine and learn the correct method.

80%. I was loud and boisterous and carried on the night in another nightclub.

There is also the Rodnik Canabis Absinthe, a new absinthe made by Rodnik mixing 2 cult plants.

A very careful consumption is counselled. 😂
