Different Absinthe Recipes

August 20, 2009 · by admin2014 ·

One should go through the history of Absinthe. Absinthe was created by a French doctor as medicine for his patients in the late 18th century in the town of Couvet of Switzerland. By 1805 the Absinthe recipes had got into the hands of Henri-Louis Pernod who started distilling it in his factory in Pontarlier in France.

Original Absinthe Recipes

Pernod’s Absinthe, Original Pernod Fils, was distilled from wine and contained many natural herbs and essential oils from plants including grande wormwood, aniseed, melissa, fennel, lemon balm, dittany, angelica root, hyssop, star anise, nutmeg and juniper.

The recipes and ingredients used by different manufacturers of the Green Fairy were not same. Absinthe production also includes herbs like calamus root, mint, cloves, nutmeg, roman wormwood, anise seed, coriander, sweet flag and licorice. Artimesia Absinthium was the main content of pre-ban Absinthe because it gave Absinthe its characteristic bitter taste and name also.

The THC in the drug cannabis and thujone in wormwood was thought to be similar. One can have psychedelic effects due to large quantity of thujone intake. Angelica root is grown as a drug in Lapland and a psychoactive element anethole is found in anise seed and fennel seed. Absinthe is a mysterious mix of sedatives and stimulants which gave artists and writers their genius and inspiration! The way of being drunk on Absinthe has been described in “A clear headed drunkenness”.

Absinthe was unauthorized in France because Prohibitionists believed that it was a great danger for the country. Just like other strong alcoholic drinks drinking Absinthe is also safe. A person cannot be harmed by Absinthe because it is alcoholic drink that contains minute quantities of wormwood and the other herbs.

Homemade Absinthe Recipes
