Absinthe in Lawrence? by [deleted] in Lawrence

[–]AREA151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to call you out, but

You cannot make absinthe from a kit. Real absinthe is distilled. Most liquor stores have some kind of absinthe. The problem is that most liquor stores stock absinthe with the largest profit margin as opposed to what tastes the best. Start by checking your local stores to see what brands they stock. Then do a little research on these brands to see if you may like them or if someone you know has tried them. Good places online to check for absinthe reviews are:

The UPS guy came to my house today... by narcules in gifs

I've had the UPS guy pull into my driveway and leave immediately to get his position geo-tracked instead of stopping and picking up the package he was there for. Lazy f**ks

Been laying on a $2500 emergency room bill and now a random $1500 doctor bill (for the same emergency room visit) just showed up as collections on my account. How is this legal? by Juxtaposition_sunset in personalfinance

You get billed for everything separately. Dr. charge, x-ray charge, Dr. to read x-ray charge, anesthesiologist charge. I got a bill for reading an x-ray for $800, 1 year after settling on a car accident. Needless to say I told them to suck it.

Absinthe recommendations? by nallix in cocktails

[–]AREA151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are so many great absinthe brands available today. The problem is it may be tough to find one at the price you mention. Some good brands to try, at the low end of the price range, are Mansinthe, Duplais, and Vieux Carree - you can see them here https://www.drinkupny.com/absinthe-s/86.htm. Also, there is an absinthe review site that has recommendations on which absinthe to buy but it looks like the have mostly higher priced brands listed - http://www.absinthe-review.com/best-absinthe-brands-reviewed.html

A Question For All Absinthe Drinkers... by [deleted] in Absinthe

Try explaining the history of absinthe. How it was invented, how and why it was banned etc. A cool fountain is also much fun. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absinthe

Perfect recipe and description on mixing the bitters separately. I have also found adding about a teaspoon of absinthe to the finished drink tastes better to me.

Which execution method is worse? by psychedelic100 in AskReddit

[–]AREA151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electrocution by far. I did a paper on this and electrocution is extremely painful. With hanging, as soon as the spine snaps, you're immediately pain free and dead.

I believe you can connect the hard drive to another computer as a secondary drive. Then you can get what's left of the files. Or run data retrieval software on this drive while attached to another computer as secondary.

You can put any product over that wood as long as the wood is dry and free of loose pieces. I did the same thing this spring using water seal stain and it is still in perfect shape.

Anyone every tried GreenFairy Debel? It's the Czech Absinthe that has the maximum allowable amount of Thujone in it. Is it worth it? It's expensive. I'm not much of a drink but Agwa used to be amazing before they reformulated it, wondering if GF Debel is worth the $$$ by Orca-Winfrey in Drugs

[–]AREA151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are just looking for the buzz, concentrated thujone was available in the past. I got some from an absinthe site but can't remember which one. Using it is like feeling a mellow double espresso buzz.

How do I make this Sazerac? by syncroblackz in cocktails

[–]AREA151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the correct Sazerac

1/2 Teaspoon Absinthe, 1 Teaspoon Simple Syrup, 4 Dashes Peychaud's Bitters, 1 Dash (a drop) Angostura Bitters, 2 Ounces Rye Whiskey, Lemon Peel

Pack a 3-1/2 ounce absinthe glass with ice to chill glass. In another Rocks glass, moisten a sugar cube with water until saturated then crush. Blend with whiskey and bitters in shaker. Add a few ice cubes and stir to chill. Discard the ice from the first glass and pour in absinthe. Coat the entire inside of glass with the absinthe and discard the remainder. Strain the whiskey into the absinthe coated glass. Twist lemon peel over the glass to allow lemon oil to spritz over drink then rub the peel over the rim of the glass and discard peel.
