The life of Austen

Absinthe and tonic is most definitely the best "Quickhit" that you can obtain from any alcohol-based cocktail. This version of the bohemian beverage, forbidden in France since 1915, is undoubtedly one of my preferred drinks. When you don't have time, or simply can't be bothered to do the sugar and spoon business, mix one-third (real)Absinthe with two-thirds tonic and hey presto - the ultimate. It's great!(although it's not for amateurs, I've seen a couple of my friends reach mong status in record time after this and they're not small drinkers!) So, if you've never heard of it, or you've never tried this one - go to England, Portugal or Spain get yourself a couple of bottles, and get into it! Oh thank you.
