Well Ive never tried it yet, but I've researched it and it seems to be something very interesting to drink. I'll let you know what happend and how I felt after drinking it. I wonder if I'll feel the effects of it, the way people stated on the other websites Ive visited. Clearity of the mind, open minded, creative thinking, perseption heightened? I guess I'll find out this weekend!

Drinking absinthe the original way: dilute with chilled water which you slowly pour into your glass over a cube of sugar. Other ways to drink absinthe were invented since the time of this classic promotional poster by Bensa-Dupont. (Picture: Bibliotheque Forney, Paris)
