Absinthe traditional

So you need:

  • 1 absinthe
  • water
  • lump sugar
  • 1 teaspoon
  • 1 lighter

First, you tilt 2-4 cl absinthe (depending on how strong the drink should be) in a glass. Then you soak a sugar cube in the absinthe, put it on the teaspoon and light it. Wait until it burns out and let the caramelizing sugar drip into the glass. When it's done, add the remainder of the sugar to the glass and top with a bit of water (it will give a cloudy, greenish color).

It hardly tastes the alcohol (mind.55,5%!) And by the sugar you get a wonderfully sweet drink with aniseed taste (own taste of the absinthe).


ATTENTION: intoxicates a lot !!!!

let it taste you!
