So next time someone says, “Absinthe is illegal in the US,” laugh in their face and hand them a glass of St. George Absinthe Verte. It’s legal, it’s delicious, and it won’t make you see the ghost of Oscar Wilde.
Remember: absinthe was never the problem. The problem was that people in the 1900s had zero chill and too much cheap wine. Now go enjoy your “herbal liqueur”—and maybe avoid the basil. You know, just in case.
