Absinthe
Q: Do current absinthe drinks (made in the U.S.) really include absinthe? Isn’t this illegal in the U.S.? I am wondering since in New Orleans there are drinks such as the Absinthe Suissesse and the Absinthe Frappe. Do these include substituted ingredients?
A: Absinthe is illegal in the US and much if the world. It is only legal in Spain, The Chech Repubic and The United Kingdom. They make a liquor that they call absinthe in the US, but it is really just Anise Liqueur.
