I have done LSD, cocaine, marijuana, blotter acid, Purple Haze acid, several different versions of mescaline and plenty of alcohol. The one that I missed however until today was absinthe. I feel confident that had I known about absinthe all those years ago and if it was legal I wouldn't have bothered with anything else. Cheers to the green fairy.

Absinthe ritual of La Louche
'It is healthy,' declares this classic Absinthe Cusenier poster that depicts a suitably well-fed gent performing the traditional absinthe ritual. The lady at the window is transfixed!

About the absinthe ritual

Absinthe.se is one reliable website that has a short how-to guide to the classic French ritual. They resolutely condemn (and refuse to provide instructions for) the modern-day "fire method".

Instructions for both rituals -- the traditional French one and the recent fire one -- are available at DrinkNation.com.
