Absinthe in Montmartre
This famous anise-flavored liquor was banned by social conservatives in France, the US and lots of other places, in the early 20th century because of its supposed psychoactive properties. It's not gonna morally destroy the working classes, as they feared, but at 69% alcohol(in this case) the stuff will put you away fast. The utensils are absinthe spoons, used to melt a sugar cube in the drink, which is also cut with water. Seen in a shop window in Montmartre appropriately.
