The reservoir at the bottom of the glass is filled with the Green Fairy. Then, when water is added, the Absinthe mixes with water and louches in swirls. Magical!
Absinthe prepared with a "brouille-absinthe" (instead of a spoon) filled with sugar, ice and water. The brouille delivers a drop by drop of iced sugared water.
The absinthe prepared is Maison Alandia, a new german absinthe.
