Absinthe Cookies, A New Kind of Sugar High

Absinthe, a liquor shrouded in mystery, is a pale green-colored cocktail, which in the past may or may not have caused hallucinations. The drink was banned in the early 1900’s but has since made a roaring comeback. So naturally, the peeps over at A Fine Kettle of Ish decided absinthe makes for a perfect glaze on a cookie.

The most potent flavor featured in the green, herbaceous drink is anise, which is most recognizable in your dad’s version of licorice. The liquor’s taboo history makes this “Absinthe Cookie”a fun recipe to make, but is most likely a flavor preferred by more mature palates.

Get the full recipe here for these delectable, other-worldly cookies.
