I attempted to write a post yesterday but my hangover got the better of me and eating chocolate all day was much more appealing than trying to work a computer!
As you can see from my last post i was pretty excited for the weekend and drinking Sex On The Beach cocktails!!! So as planned we started off with the cocktails and then headed to a curry house and drank white wine, note-to-self never ask for house white wine in a curry house as it arrives in a fish bowl with no label and looks likes a urine sample from the doctors and funnily enough tastes like one!!!
Anyway less of that…The night was going well until it come to drinking shots time, Sambuka shots yes, Absinthe shots big NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
My first experience with Absinthe was when i was 18 and sat in bar, i had my cocky head on and believed that i could drink anything, i mean it couldn’t be much stronger than my blue WKD that i was drinking! Ok that’s what i thought at the time and o how wrong i was! I knocked the shot back in one and the next thing i know i was leaning over the bar struggerling to breathe and violently being sick, all that in the space of 5 seconds! Classy! Since my ever so embarrassing experience i have purposely stayed clear of Absinthe on a night out and have no intensions of ever drinking the dreaded poison again!
That’s why on Saturday when my mates got a round of Absinthe in i proudly rejected and watched in horror as they downed there shot. There faces said it all when they finished and so did there behaviour, if you want to pull your crazy ex who will not leave you alone, who you have been trying to avoid for months then Absinthe will make you think there Megan Fox and you will be straight in there arms again…well until the alcohol is out of your blood stream, that’s what happened to one of the guys i was out with on Saturday and another one spent the rest of the night lay on a bathroom floor with there head in the toilet, nice!!!
So if you want my opinion i think your bloody crazy if you drink Absinthe and if you have never tried it before don’t try now as you are not missing out! I love shots like Sambuka, Tequila and After Shock and these are all pretty harsh but they taste like water compared to Absinthe.
If you have had any bad experience with Absinthe let us know?????
