Absinthe brings back memories.
If you dont like it straight mix it with some lemonade but dont drink too much or else you will wake up in the morning with little memory of what happened the night before.

Only ever drank it 1 crazy night. That was a crazy night.

My wee cousin downed a pint of vodka in one as well then collapsed in a pile of spew at the back door of the guys house we were in

Absinthe makes me aggressive (in a friendly way).

One morning me and my mate polished off half a bottle for breakfast. By lunchtime we were rolling about his bedroom floor wrestling. I ended up with a biscuit tin getting smashed over my head. He got a face full of Reggae Reggae sauce.

Fun times

Quite like La Fee but it is has a much harsher edge to it over the likes of Sebor. All this 94% bollocks isn't even proper absinthe

It makes my friend dead miserable. He just goes and sits in the corner updating his Facebook saying how shit he is with girls whenever we go to this place and have Absinthe cocktails. Aggressive would probably be more interesting though.

used to do all sorts of things with it years ago, mixing it with sugar, setting fire to it, drinking it straight, not really knowing what to do.

i now drink it like ed says, and its a pleasant drink, reminds me of Ouzo

Only ever remember trying it the once and it was neat.
Werent a fan to be honest.
I've only had two nights where I try to remember what happen and that was due to vast amount of vodka.

kinda like this http://youtu.be/CljldVFRk6o

Most % I've had is 85%, wasn't that bad as it doesn't actually taste like absinthe. IMO the 55% bottle from ASDA is worse.
