It's Time To Get To Know Those Little Green Fairies

If you're ever wanted to feel the way Van Gogh did when he chopped his ear off well now you have the chance... kind of.  Absinthe has finally come back to the states and is being spotted in liquor stores across the country.  Due to a FDA ban on any product that contains wormwood absinthe couldn't be sold in the USA, but distillers have found a way around this. By making the drink without the wormwood it is considered legal. The problem is this, why would one drink something that tastes like rubbing alcohol if you're not going to trip balls?  So absinthe coming back to the US might be a little bit of a let down but we'll keep our fingers crossed. Who knows maybe hallucinogens will be legal again someday.
