"It doesnt cause hallucinations; just hemmorages and internal bleeding."
Is it wrong to wish it caused hallucinations instead?

Today we're going to do an absinthe cocktail. Not a cocktail made out of absinthe, but an absinthe cocktail. Alright first we're going to add 2 ounces of absinthe.

Fun story: friend brought over what they called a "Czech Absinthe", and insisted we prepare it "the Czech way", which involved placing the sugar on the spoon first, pouring the absinthe, then setting the sugar cube on fire to dissolve into the drink.
I poured a little too much absinthe into my glass, the sugar was alighted, the entire glass caught on fire, shattered the glass, and I had flaming absinthe spreading all over my wood coffee table.
Don't do that.

You should try the Hemingway Absinthe drink. Absinthe and slowly mix in fresh orange juice. Hemingway called it âDeath in the Afternoonâ.

The fire misconception most likely originated from the process of making "Feuerzangenbowle" which involves Sugar and a special "spoon" as well . You pour rum over the sugar and light it. It's a very delicious and traditional drink.

The amount of thujone in absinthe is restricted though. At 35 mg/L IIRC and at that dose you'd need something like 6 liters of absinthe to receive a fatal dose of thujone (which I believe is more of a neurotoxin). However 6 liters of 140 proof alcohol will kill you first.
Also the hallucinating might have some basis in fact. To recreate the green or blue colours of the verts and blanches absinthes cheap rip off producers used copper salts like copper sulfate. Also the cheap absinthe was produced in lead barrels, stills and pipes which leached lead into the absinthe. Lead is absorbed into the body and incorporated into your skeleton as it replaces calcium. And eventually you'll start hallucinating not unlike the workers in plants that made the lead additive for fuels used in the 1950's and 60's.

Great video. One complaint though, your background music is too loud. I can't hear what you are saying. I am listening on a mobile without headphones, but the music overshadows your voice too much.

Why does How To Drink have a nice Fallout vibe to it?

I really like those. They are short and informative but at the same time they're so out of place. It's great

Thank you for getting the facts out there about absinthe! It is my favorite drink in the world, but it's one that every hipster thinks they know all about.

I have been living in Louisiana for years and finally made it to the Absinthe House on Bourbon. Amazing! I wish I had the $$ to try all the different kinds they have. They did light mine on fire, but they donât do it with all of them. Cheers!

It's actually funny because louche means literally weird.

Found your channel maybe two months ago, found this video today. Glad you've kept the music consistent. Keep up the excellent work.
