The Old Absinthe House is a historic building on Bourbon Street in the French Quarter of New Orleans. It was built in 1806 as an importing firm, and later became a saloon in 1815. It was renamed as the Absinthe Room in 1874, when a bartender named Cayetano Ferrer invented the famous Absinthe House Frappe, a drink made with Absinthe and sugar water. The decorative marble fountains that were used to drip cool water over sugar cubes into glasses of Absinthe can still be found in this historic bar.

It's Ash's 21st birthday.

I had a lovely seat by the fountain to enjoy sipping absinthe.

The main fetch quest of the day, Adrian's hard suitcase. In 2 weeks time, this'll be travelling on Easyjet, full of 80% strength absinthe :p

My earlier attempt to make a Dorflingler using Emperor Norton absinthe and Bummer & Lazarus gin, both from Raff Distillerie, came out a bit harsh. I took a wild guess and tried it with St. George Dry Rye Reposado gin, and it came out much better! Still super local, an absinthe from Treasure Island and gin from the island of Alameda.

 

Wigle's rosemary lavender bitters worked well with this.

no fire involved. Takes a bit of time for the water to dissolve the sugar though.

Chose promise, chose dûe ! La même (ou presque) et son sucre en flamme...

vintage glass beads with gorgeous asymmetrical faceting and a faint givre effect with varying shades of green, coupled with matte finish brass findings on brass wire.

We got some ice cream, which didn't taste much like absinthe, but was instead pretty sweet.

My favorite drink. ^-^
