Ingredients Needed for an Absinthe Recipe

Hi, my name's Allen, for Expert Village and today I'm going to discuss the controversial and banned alcohol commonly known as Absinthe. Now the next stage we have here in the process in making our home Absinthe, or the home Absinthe kit, working with it is actually the stage of using the premade bag of all the different ingredients. Now if you smell it, this is the stronger ingredients, a lot more of the bitter stuff which actually includes the wormwood and also the anise and things like that and this is what we're going to do, we going to actually use it almost like a tea bag. Now they do recommend in the manual to use like a glass pitcher or something like that to use this and pour in the different, the vodka and Everclear into it. I don't have a big enough glass container so I'm going to use a plastic container, which is perfectly fine. We're going to mix it, it's going to be almost like making tea. You're going to shake it every so often like they say in the manual just to keep it stirred up and that's going to leave us after five days to go to the next step which if the filtration process, which of course will be in another segment. Now again this works just like brewing tea for the most part and we're going to use a liter of vodka and a liter of Everclear to make this.
