How to Make Absinthe

Absinthe is made with Artemisia absinthium (wormwood) and other herbs. Originally used as a bitter digestif
(similar to amaro), true absinthe can be difficult to procure. High quality absinthe is made by using wormwood and
other herbs during the distillation process, although it is not uncommon for commercial examples of absinthe to be
made by merely soaking an herbal mixture in alcohol (referred to as a maceration). Very early absinthe was also
apparently made without distilling an herbal maceration. Active botanical constituents (such as thujone from
wormwood) are extracted into the alcohol while the herbs are soaked in the alcohol. Wormwood varieties are
available that contain negligible amounts of thujone, although wormwood should always contribute greatly to the
perceived bitterness of absinthe.

750ml bottle of Bacardi® 151 rum, Everclear® (grain alcohol) or vodka (alcohol used MUST be 100 proof or better,
otherwise the ingredients will not extract properly)

1oz wormwood, stems and leaves only (Artemisia absinthium)

1/3oz hyssop (whole plant)

10g Chinese star anise, only fruit/flower (Japanese variety is poisonous)

30g anise seed

20g fennel seed )

6g lemon balm (whole plant) (Melissa officinalis)

3.2g coriander (seed)

1.8g calamus (root)

Veronica

Cardamom

Thyme

Lavender

Sage

Mint

Angelica root

Roman or petite wormwood (Artemisia pontica [optional])

Decide what kind of absinthe you want to make. Absinthe is always made with what is referred to as "The Holy
Trinity" which consists of wormwood, anise, and fennel, but authentic wormwood can be chosen that does not
contain thujone. Absinthe that does not contain thujone should be much safer than absinthe that contains
thujone. Choose a final absinthe color. Color is imbued to the absinthe during the herbal maceration. Green
absinthe is made using green herbs such as mint and petite wormwood. The chlorophyll from these herbs is
extracted into the absinthe. Red absinthe can be made by excluding the green herbs and using red herbs such as
paprika which gives it a more spiced flavor as well. The oils from the anise and fennel seeds will contribute to the
louche effect (the cloudiness produced when water is added to absinthe).
Prepare your ingredients and the place where you'll be preparing the absinthe.Use about 1/3 cup or less of
herbal ingredients per 750ml alcohol base. Wash your hands, the surface you'll be working on and your herbs.
Chop, crumble, or grind the herbal ingredients. The wormwood can be chopped or crumbled (if not ground). A
mortar and pestle can be used for grinding herbs such as anise seeds. The herbal constituents will be more
efficiently extracted from herbs that have been ground up or finely chopped.

Add the ingredients and the alcohol to mason jars or similar glass vessels that can be sealed.

Store the bottle in a dark warm room for 2 weeks to 2 months to let the Artemisia absinthium and other herbs
infuse adequately into the alcohol. This process is called maceration, and the duration will directly influence the
flavor. Too long, and the flavors will be muddy and bitter; too short, and there won't be enough flavor.

Take your mixture and strain all of the herbs from it with a cheesecloth, coffee filter, or similar material. The
resulting liquid will most likely be brown and bitter. In order to make 'real' absinthe, a distillation process is
necessary to boil away the bitterness. The distillate will be clear and have much less flavor. Once you have this
"absinthe blanche", you can make it your own with a second maceration process. This second maceration will give
the absinthe its true flavor and color.

Use much less wormwood, preferable petite (to minimize bitterness). Since this will not be distilled, it will add
strong flavors and natural color. Be creative, add flavors you enjoy. Macerate to taste, not two months. Too much
maceration will bitter your batch.

It's easier to make a separate batch of "flavor absinthe" instead of putting the herbs directly into the distilled
absinthe. This way, you can even make an "anise" alcohol, "fennel" alcohol, and "mint" alcohol, and mix them
independently to personal preference. This way, you can alter the recipe in 'real time' as you taste it. Otherwise,
you have to wait another week or so for the maceration.

The mixing process is of utmost importance. You will mix your distillate with your flavoring, at the same time
diluting the mixture with either vodka or water. Mix it up, taste a little, and then mix whatever is necessary. Too
much alcohol (distillate) and the concoction will burn like a strong liquor. Too much flavor (macerate) and the drink
will be too bitter as the flavor sticks to the tongue. You can also sweeten the absinthe at this time, with anything
from sugar to sweet-n-low to corn syrup.

Bottle, and, since you probably don't know how to age it, enjoy.

7. boel and the seventh camp are over dreams and their interpretation

The seventh firmament all of it is sevenfold light, and from its light all the (seven) heavens shine. Within
it is the throne of glory, set on the four glorious Hayot, Also within it are the storehouses of lives, and
the storehouses of souls. There is no calculation or limit to the great light within it, and the fullness of
the light illumines all the earth. The angels are fixed in pillars of light, and their light is as the 3 light of
the brilliant star and cannot be extinguished, for their eyes are like flashes of lightning, and they stand
upon the margins of (the divine) light, and glorify in fear the One who sits upon the throne of glory. For
He alone sits in the heaven of His holiness, seeking out judgment, evening the scales of justice; judging
in truth and speaking in righteousness. And before Him the books of fire are open And from before Him
flow rivers of fire, when He rises the gods are afraid, and when He roars the pillar shake.

And from His voice the doorposts tremble.^ His soldiers stand before Him, But they do not gaze upon
His likeness. For He is hidden from every eye. And none can see Him and live. His appearance is hidden
from all. But no appearance is hidden from Him. He uncovers deep things from the darkness,^ And He
knows the secrets of obscurity. For light dwells with Him, And He puts on light as a garment. He sits on
light as a throne. And light is a wall around Him."' The Hayot and Opanim bear Him up. As they fly with
their wings. They have six wings each And they cover their faces with their wings. And they turn their
faces downward. Their faces are turned toward their fellows, And they do not lift their faces upwards.
Because of their fear and their terror. Troops upon troops stand one above another before Him, And
immerse themselves in rivers of purity. And wrap themselves in garments of white fire. And sing with
humility in a strong voice: "Holy Holy Holy is the Lord of Hosts, The whole world is full of His glory,” He
is prior to all creatures; He was when earth and heaven were not yet. He is alone; There is no stranger
with Him. By His strength He upholds the heaven(s). And in all the heavens He is feared, And by all the
angels He is revered. For by the breath of His mouth they were formed And to glorify His power they
were established. He (acts) alone and who can turn Him back? And if He commands none can annul. For
He is the King of Kings of Kings, Ruling over all of the kings of the earth. And exalted among the angels of
heaven. He searches hearts before they are formed. And He knows thoughts before they occur. Blessed
be His name And blessed the greatness of His glory. For ages and ages. And for an eternity of eternities.
For there is no God apart from Him, And there is no God beside Him. Blessed is His name in each
generation And blessed in the heavens on high. Blessed is His name with its might. And blessed its
mention with the beauty of His power. For as His name so is His praise as it has been said (in scripture):
As is your name, 0 God, so is your praise to the ends of the earth; your right hand is full of righteousness.
He brings the pure to reverence Him,''"^ And in His wrath drives away the impure. He moves mountains
by His might and strength. They did not know when He overturned them in His wrath. He holds the
world as a cluster of grapes, Bearing all that was, is, and will be. And with Him-are enduring riches and
righteousness. Blessed be His glory from His habitation. And blessed (be He) in the beauty of His dignity.
The hearts of those who fear Him He fills with knowledge. To search and to know the power of the fear
of His name. Blessed be His name in the dwelling place of His splendor. And blessed in the beauty of His
strength. Blessed be His name in the storehouses of snow. And blessed in the rivers of flames. Blessed
be His name in the mists of brilliance. And blessed in the clouds of glory. Blessed be His name in the
myriads of chariots. And blessed in the thousands upon thousands (of His warriors). Blessed be His name
in the chains of fire. And blessed in the ropes of flame. Blessed be His name in the peals of thunder. And
blessed in the bolts of lightning. Blessed be His name in the mouths of all on earth. And blessed in the
depths of the earth. Blessed be His name amid all the deserts. And blessed amid the waves of the sea.
Blessed be His name alone on His throne, And blessed in dwelling places of His majesty. Blessed be His
name in the mouth of all living. And blessed in the song of every creature. Blessed be the Lord forever,
AMEN, AMEN, HALLELUJAH.
