Van Gogh and Absinthe

Post by CalgaryLiquorDlvry »

To "astonish" oneself, try Van Gogh Oranje Vodka and Absinthe in 70-30 ratio. With melted sugar.

Remember, I promised astonishment, never inspiration.

:P

Why would you dilute absinthe with shitty orange vodka?

Good absinthe should be diluted with water (3 parts to 1). In the absence of good water, Gin and Vermouth will do nicely. Take an ounce and a half of Gin, a half ounce of vermouth and about a third ounce of absinthe. Shake with ice.
It's always a good day to get ripped!

Mixing Absinthe is a terrible idea. Even shitty Absinthe.
