Topic: Anyone ever try absinthe ? | |
---|---|
Whats special about it? Is it just a "status-drink" with an additional
spin of it being "banned" in the US? Or is it really more potent than the usual strong liquor? I'm not a drinker, but, in the last month, I've heard it come up several times, and been wondering what its all about. |

Is it because of thujone, a toxic ingedient of dogwood, used in making
it (also similiar to THC)? Check out this site, and let me know if it is the same thing. http://www.absinth.com/cgi-bin/s_cart04/perlshop.cgi |

I have on thing to say about that drink... OK two:
ONE: It tastes bad... TWO: I got the real drink that is prohibited in the US; and I was gone after one glass... Pink elephants were dancing on the ceiling that night. LANTZ |

Pink Elephants??? So the "Green Fairy" is really part of the experience.
Go figure. PoorBiker: Yeah, I think we're talking about the same thing. |
