NEW SPRAY TOPIC: What are you DRINKING right now?

[bunglehead]

Here's what I'm "enjoying"

Water, fructose, sucrose syrup, glucose-fructose syrup,

citric acid, natural and artificial grape flavors,salt,

sodium sit--oh fuck it. FIERCE GRAPE Gatorade.

It's in me.

i wish i was drinking absinthe. i've never had it before, but i think it would greatly fit my mood.

[bunglehead]

Yikes!

Sounds like you're in a weird mood!

I had Berechovka once, this shit that tasted like cumin, bark and cinnamon. It's Czech, I believe. Blecch.

Absinthe tastes like lemonade with a kick. Yummy.

 

I'm drinking lukewarm water at this very moment.

[cook]

I'm glad I'm not drinking absinthe right now. I drank absinthe once and threw up for 24 hours.

 

Now I am also drinking warm water.

[Mal_Con]

Cold Coffee

[snugtop]

my dog's drinking from the toilet now

[selkirk]

Cold Coffee as well, but a nice chilled Limoncello sounds awfully nice at the moment! Is absinthe still illegal in the US?

[espirita]

I think so.

"absinthe ducrois fils. triple rectification"

[bunglehead]

I've seen Absinthe in the liquor store down here in Orygun.

It's 46 dollars a bottle, and I don't know if it has the

ingredient that makes you want to hatchet your loved ones

(i.e. wormwood), but it's there.

[deadbeatchrist]

Absinthe is not legal to sell in the US. It is legal, however, to import. Though I have heard that customs will take it from you if they find it... kind of a slap on the wrist thing for bringing hallucenogens into the country.

The issue with Absinthe is the wormwood that is used to make it. It is considered poisonous in the US. Most of the hallucinagenic effects from absinthe are largely anecdotal.

You can get one of the cheapest brands at the Duty Free shop at the CA border.

well, i couldn't find any absinthe at nordstrom's so i got some "just moo!" instead. probably goes better with oreo's anyway.

The presumed active ingredient in wormwood's oils, alpha-thujone, has a similar molecular structure to menthol, a-pinene, eucalyptol, camphor and other monoterpenes. Formerly believed to have a THC (cannabinoid) structure-activity relationship and mechanism, a-thujone is now known to modulate only an entirely different receptor site, the GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) system. GABA moderates the firing of neural synapses; a-thujone mildly antagonizes such inhibition.
