"Wine" Tasting and Drinking Games

[superjoanjett]

Anyone showing up for class today would notice some ominous bottles filled with clear greenish liquid sitting on the bar.

"So. Today's wine choice is absinthe," Jessica began. "And yeah, I know. It's not wine. Whatever. We're fucking drinking it."

She pulled off the cap and started to pour a glass for everyone. "The taste profile is that shitty black jelly bean you accidentally ate with a hint of dusty herbs that someone keeps in their pantry but only break it out during thanksgiving dinner so they don't really taste like they should."

"Oh and supposedly it's supposed to make you hallucinate but I guess that's a bullshit urban myth. So if you start seeing fairies or whatever then they're probably real. As for tonight's drinking game we're all going to pretend we're at some teenager sleepover and play truth or dare."

Because the combination of absinthe and truth and dare is a chemical reaction that Jessica wanted to see happen.

"Let's start shall we?"

I had absinthe a few times while living abroad. I'm pretty sure by the third time I could actually feel my throat try to close up in protest, but I tell ya what, nothing on this earth has ever gotten me drunker faster. . . .

I have never had absinthe and probably never will. The source of today's choice was actually an episode of New Girl that I watched a couple of weeks ago.
