Absinthe Tips and Facts

• Absinthe may eat through some types of plastic. Store Absinthe in an air-tight glass container.
• Absinthe is usually over 150 proof. Always dilute it with a non-alcoholic mixer
• Absinthe is flammable. Use with care.
• Homemade Absinthe can be extremely nasty. Always dilute it with a non-alcoholic mixer
• Absinthe may be nasty, but you'll find that the more you drink the less you'll care!
• The effects of Absinthe's "other" ingredients do not last as long as the effects of alcohol. So if you drink your absinthe too slowly, you're not going to feel anything but the Alcohol.
• Try to get through your first glass within 10 minutes. The longer you let it sit, the warmer (and nastier) it gets. Plus, as I stated above - You'll get a better buzz if you drink it quickly.
• Homemade Absinthe can be pretty bitter, so ignore your taste buds. They are your worst enemy.
