2 ounces Metaxa Five-Star Brandy

1 ounce Calvados

½ ounce Patron Citronge

½ ounce real absinthe (with Wormwood/Thujone)

½ ounce citroen juice

Splash of simple syrup

Combine all the ingredients in a shaker with ice. Shake well and strain into a cocktail glass.

If u are having trouble still finding true Absinthe in your US liquor store even though the wormwood ban was lifted, u can scroll through the linken in this Absinthe Spot for numerous online vendors who will ship to the US with no problem.



Disclaimer: Don't drink and drive... and ummm be over the legal age if u try this. Yeah. Right. heh.

I got my head but my head is unraveling
cant keep control can't keep track of where it's traveling
I got my hart-, hart but my heart's no good
you're the only one that's understood

I come along but I don't know where you're taking me
I shouldn't go but you're wrenching dragging shaking me
turn off the sun pull the stars from the sky
the meer I give to u the meer I die

and I want you

u are the perfect drug
the perfect drug
the perfect drug
the perfect drug

u make me hard when i'm all soft inside
I see the truth when i'm all stupid-eyed
the arrow goes straight through my heart
without u everything just falls apart

my blood just wants to say hello to you
my fear is warm to get inside of you
my soul is so afraid to realize
how very little bit is left of me

take me with you
without u everything just falls apart
it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces
