Absinthe Cocktails: Foaming Fairy - SippitySup

Brad 8 /14/2017 @ 6:24 am I used a Brockmans Gin for this, muddled fresh blueberries and a squeeze of fresh orange, little bit of sugar syrup,fine strained, ditched the bitters. Changed the colour,but a good drink Reply William Bush 1 /4/2018 @ 5:49 pm So in a nutshell you made exactly, a different drink altogether right? Make what you like and post it too, just don’t say you used every ingredient other than the absinthe and say you made this. I actually am having one right now, I agree maybe only add the bitters to taste but I didn’t say replace with an alternative that has nothing to do with original ingredients.

Because I did, and it’s bloody awful. Reply Greg Henry 12 /19/2013 @ 7:41 pm Absinthe is not for everyone. GREG Reply Ben 2 /16/2015 @ 5:34 am I just tried it and indeed it was awful, I added 40ml of simple syrup to the above recipe and it was better but still not something I’ll likely make again. Reply lisa 12 /17/2013 @ 4:55 pm lazy research (as in non-existent) on the absinth, i have to say.it’s pretty simple — it was banned for the wrong reasons. research showed that the awful poisonings were due to badly produced alcohol, not the absinth itself.beautiful looking cocktail, anyway! Reply Greg Henry 12 /17/2013 @ 5:18 pm Did you read the whole thing? I believe I plainly stated in the 2nd to last paragraph that eventually folks “discredited the reasons for the ban on absinthe”. Thanks for stopping by. GREG Reply William Bush 1 /4/2018 @ 5:51 pm Yeah I don’t like know it alls either Greg but that doesn’t give you free reign to be a dick. Thanks for the informative read though, sticking to only the facts really works for you. Reply Chris 12 /17/2013 @ 1:28 pm You know what they say, absinthe makes the heart grow fonder. No? I didn’t know that it was ever illegal, I’m so out of touch with those kind of things. Which speaking of prohibition, I wonder if any chefs in Colorado will start cooking with cannabis as a seasoning. Reply William Bush 1 /4/2018 @ 5:52 pm Have you not tried our potsta sauces? Reply Joshua Hampton 12 /16/2013 @ 6:00 pm Nice booze factoids — I love learning something new. And I love your foaming fairy recipe. It looks festive and fanciful. Absinthe rocks. Reply John@Kitchen Riffs 12 /15/2013 @ 1:13 pm Yup, you know your gin. 😉 Absinthe is good stuff, isn’t it? Strong flavor, though, so balancing it can be a bit tricky. This drink, though, looks perfectly balanced — good job. Reply Averie @ Averie Cooks 12 /14/2013 @ 1:37 pm I love the title and the color! And the boozy trivia & factoids. I need these in my life! Reply Joanne 12 /14/2013 @ 3:31 am I remember when absinthe came back onto the scene. It was a good year. 🙂 Reply Sarah|pickledcapers 12 /13/2013 @ 3:18 pm So your cocktail is one part historic England and one part historic Paris? How Waterloo of you. 🙂 Everything about this drink is intriguing and I loved the history snippet. Thanks!

However, I wouldn’t mind if a fairy or two visits me! Reply Ellen 12 /12/2013 @ 10:10 pm God I love absinthe. Reply Jennifer 12 /12/2013 @ 2:22 pm What a cool looking cocktail and what a great idea. I didn’t know that about Old Tom Gin. I actually thought it was just another brand, but now I know the truth. Reply
