Absinthe - The Green Goddess Homemade
The recent Absinthe entry inspired me.
I have been making this for years and it works. Trust me... It just does not get cloudy when you add water, but mentally speaking it WORKS. (You can easily double the recipe)
1 Pint Vodka
2 tsp Anise Seed
4 Cardamom pods
(1 tsp crushed)
1/2 tsp ground Corriander
2 tsp crumbled Wormwood
1/2 tsp Fennel seed
1 tsp Marjoram
2 tsp chopped Angelica root
Sugar Syrup
