A proper way to prepare your absinthe with a fountain. NEVER use any flame or fire with absinthe. Just slow, steady cold water and you're set. Enjoy.

How do you get absinthe in the States? Isn't it banned? I wish I lived in Europe.

You can buy Absinthe in Quebec, Canada however it's miles below the stuff sold in Europe.

"Absinthe" is the name of my high school's yearbook. Also absinthe green is one of the school's colors.

Me and a buddy got ourselves drunk on a bottle of Absinthe at his birthday the other day. It was a relatively weak one (50 % alcohol), but man does it work. First time I tasted it. We used ordinary sugar in a teaspoon, dipped it in the absinthe and lit it. When it was properly melted, we mixed it in the absinthe.

It may not be the correct way to do it, but man does it work. Incidentally, it tastes very much like pure alcohol.

you can buy absinthe with 70% alcohol here in germany... i only drank it once without water (didn't know that you had to pour the water into the absinthe, i thought it would be to extinguish the fire after you drank the absinthe
