Absinthe |

I love this stuff. I drink two or three glasses a night, sometimes more. I don't know how real absinthe tastes, but I've developed a WONDERFUL way to drink this. You mix one bottle of grain alcohol with one bottle of 100 proof vodka in a 1.75 ml bottle with 2 UP Absinthe Pro TF essences and 2 wormwood schnapps essences. It tastes magnificent. You can mix the sugar in if you wish, but I prefer drinking it the old way with ice cold water dripped over a sugar cube on a slotted spoon.

Absinthe Pro TF |

Prepared in combination with the Wormwood essence. Very good. I used Everclear 190 proof grain and did not dilute with distilled water. Yields approx. 180 proof for 750mL. I have drank czech absinthe several years ago. It does taste comparable from what I remember.
If you do use 190 grain as the base and do not dilute with distilled water, do not use the sugar as specified. It will not dissolve into the alcohol.
Planning on a 150 proof version in the near future to tame it down some.

Rather than sugar I use 1 liter of 150 or 190 proof grain alcohol and 1 liter of anisette mixed with 2 bottles of the absinthe extract and 3 bottles of the wormwood extract. The anisette gives a nice level of sweetness as well as a very nice louche not to mention a very authentic absinthe buzz.

Mixed this and the wormwood extract they sell and a bottle of 100 proof smirnoff. Strong liqorish/anise taste almost like green Nyquil.
Overall i liked it and drank about half the bottle. Didn't see any green fairies, ha ha.
