A brief History of Absinth

Absinthe is a distilled, highly alcoholic beverage.

It is an anise-flavored spirit derived from botanical ingredients, including the flowers and leaves of the herb Artemisia absinthium, commonly known as "grand Wormwood". Absinthe originated in the canton of Neuchâtel in Switzerland in the late 18th century. It rose to great popularity as an alcoholic drink in late 19th- and early 20th-century France, particularly among Parisian artists and writers. Owing in part to its association with bohemian culture, absinthe was opposed by social conservatives and prohibitionists.

Absinthe became popular in France in the late 1800s. It was particularly favored by artists and writers, who appreciated its ability to induce a state of creative intoxication. Some of the most famous absinthe drinkers included Vincent van Gogh, Oscar Wilde, and Pablo Picasso. Absinthe's popularity began to decline in the early 20th century, owing in part to its association with bohemianism and decadence. It was also opposed by temperance advocates and prohibitionists. In 1915, absinthe was banned in the United States, and in 1918, it was banned in France. Although absinthe has been illegal in these countries for nearly a century, it has continued to be produced and consumed in underground markets. In the 21st century, absinthe has undergone a renaissance, with new brands appearing on the market and old brands being reintroduced. Although absinthe is no longer the dangerous, mind-altering beverage it was once believed to be, it remains a potent and controversial drink.

The history of the green fairy and Absinthe is a long and complicated one. Absinthe is a distilled alcoholic beverage made from botanical ingredients, including the flowers and leaves of the Artemisia absinthium plant. It is typically green in color, and has a high alcohol content. The green fairy is a nickname for the Absinthe spirit, which is said to have a seductive and alluring quality. Absinthe has a long and complicated history, dating back to the 18th century. It was first created in Switzerland, and quickly became popular in France. Absinthe was associated with the bohemian lifestyle, and became particularly popular among artists and writers. It was said to promote creativity and inspiration. Absinthe was banned in many countries in the early 20th century, due to its supposed hallucinogenic properties. However, it has since been legalized in most countries, and has once again become popular. The green fairy is a symbol of the Absinthe spirit, and represents its seductive and alluring quality. Absinthe is often referred to as the "green fairy" due to its green color. The green fairy is said to be able to grant wishes, and is a popular figure in Absinthe culture.

Vermeer Dutch Chocolate Cream Liqueur.

This item screams "after dinner drink" with its combination of Dutch chocolate, cream, and vodka. Exceptionally good as a dessert topping (albeit not a floor wax), it is intensely sweet with a bitter chocolate undertone and a thick velvety tongue feel reminiscent of chocolate ganache. It seems tailor-made for ice cream. It goes down beautifully over ice in modest quantities. It's not for those who don't have a sweet tooth, but those who want something sweet after eating will be drawn to the substance. It also produces a quite tasty adult Frappuccino with warmer weather on the way:

- 3 ounces Vermeer

- 1.5 ounce coffee liqueur (Starbucks would be insanely appropriate here)

- 1 ounce vodka

- Splash of Irish whiskey to tone down the sweetness slightly

Fill a shaker with ice and all ingredients. Toss it (the contents, not the shaker) in a blender and frappe away till the ice is crushed fine and the drink has roughly the consistency of a milkshake. Pour into a glass and top off with whipped cream if you're so inclined.
