| Description: |
Absinthe is typically green (either naturally or with added color) and is often referred to as la F?§|e Verte ('The Green Fairy'). Due to its high proof and concentration of oils, absintheurs (absinthe drinkers) typically add three to five parts ice-cold water to a dose of absinthe, which causes the drink to cloud, called 'louching'; often the water is used to dissolve added sugar to add sweetness. This preparation is considered an important part of the experience of drinking absinthe, so much so that it has become ritualised, complete with special slotted absinthe spoons and other accoutrements. Absinthe's flavour is similar to other anise-flavoured drinks, with a light bitterness and added complexity imparted by multiple herbs.
Absinthe originated in Switzerland as an elixir/tincture, used in a similar capacity as patent medicines would be used later in the United States. However, it is better known for its popularity in late 19th and early 20th century France, particularly among Parisian artists and writers whose romantic associations with the drink still linger in popular culture. In its heyday, the most popular brand of absinthe worldwide was Pernod Fils. At the height of this popularity, absinthe was portrayed as a dangerously addictive, psychoactive drug; the chemical thujone was blamed for most of its deleterious effects. By 1915, it was banned in a number of European countries and the United States. Even though it was vilified, no evidence shows it to be any more dangerous or psychoactive than ordinary alcohol.[2] A modern absinthe revival began in the 1990s, as countries in the European Union began to reauthorise its manufacture and sale.
