Hi my name's Allen for Expert Village, and today I'm going to discuss the controversial alcohol, commonly known as Absinthe. This is a nice bottle that comes with the deluxe kit they send you. It has automatic stop on it, and it clicks down. Really, really nice. So let's go ahead. I'm going to take the same funnel that we used before. I'm going to put it actually right in here. It looks pretty dark in here, actually, but it is very, very green. If you have the light hit it right, you can see how green it is. That's pretty much the whole bottling process, with the bottle that comes with it. You can pretty much in whatever bottle you have readily available. This is the one that they recommend, and the one that they make for use, which is really what you should use for it. I think with the left over?s, I'm going to get a couple smaller bottles and give them out to my friends. Make a couple one ounce or two ounce bottles and give them some of the sugar cubes and go from there. Though now we have it bottled, the next step is to get some water and the sugar cubes and everything, and go ahead and make the actual Absinthe drink.
