    I just bought this in Aruba! I mix mine with pear brandy lime juice simple syrup egg white, bitters and nutmeg! All I can say is omg!!! I’m curious how sugar and water taste with it since it smells like the black jelly bean and I absolutely hate black jellybeans 😂

    Method 1, the historically correct one, works best with real absinthe that contains anise and therefore louches.

      I have a bottle of what was claimed to be the real deal, it's the first time I've tried it so what exactly am I looking for when I drip the cold water over the cube?

      @@JohnJohn-qq1cw Cold water dissolves the sugar and the cold sugar-water sinks to the bottom of the glass, making (real) absinthe louche. I.e. you get to see beautiful whitish-green clouds in the liquid. Dilute it according to taste, then mix the drink with the spoon and enjoy! Sugar is a matter of taste, also. I don't use sugar. Some drink absinthe with simple syrup instead of sugar.

      @@WeightlessBallast I tried it last night. I was expecting something like anise flavoured white spirit due to the ABV% not that subtle flavour with no burn. Is it worth me buying a bubble glass?

      @@JohnJohn-qq1cw Replica glasses are affordable, look a lot like antique glasses and they do work. Besides, if one gets broken it's not that big deal (unlike my Swiss glass that was over 100 years old 😞). Bubble or Pontarlier style glasses are very nice for louching.

      It’s supposed to be a cloudy milky white when you pour the sugar and water in, if it’s a white absinthe that means it’s already been done for you. Not sure whats up with the drink in the video. Absinthe is traditionally a very translucent green

    I like how the first method shown fails completely to louche properly, whic isn’t how the ‘French’ or ‘Parisian’ method is meant to work. Which means that they’ve either done it wrong (ideally needs ice cold water dripped slowly) or else this is very poor quality absinth.

    • @gepo97
      @gepo97 5 месяцев назад +5

      You can definitely tell its "poor quality" absinthe (not even real absinthe) just by looking at the colour. Looks more like mouthwash. Please ignore this video at all. Only reports misinformation

      Poor quality. And quite possibly not enough water. The stuff I make louches at twice the water, but is smooth at three times the water. Bitter either way. 😁

      @@aaron8977 Nope. This one has clearly been colored with food coloring. Traditional absinthe can go from pea green to yellow in color, and the color naturally degrades to yellow, with time. Also, some absinthes turn cloudy and opalescent in color when water is mixed, because of a chemical reaction that makes the oils from all the herbs precipitate out of the initial solution.
