Homemade absinthe

Anise, fennel and wormwood fall asleep in a jar, pour alcohol. Shake the jar thoroughly, leave it to infuse in a dark place for 2 weeks, shake the jar periodically. A note about the amount of wormwood, I personally tried this recipe for absinthe with a 100 gram suspension — I didn't notice much difference in taste. You can insist not 2 weeks but 3-4 days, for this we put the jar on the battery so that the temperature would be about 50C, and possibly mix the contents.
Pour the infusion into the device together with herbs in the same 450 ml of pure water. The heating should be carried out on medium heat, the distillation itself on medium low, so that the distillate selection would not flow like a jet, but dripped. I usually take the first 3-5% into the head fractions — as a washing machine. It is necessary to select a total of 900-950 ml, after selecting 850 ml, it is better to change the container and select 50 ml each, the line between the tail fractions and the average is thin, usually the tail fraction starts to run sharply, it is cloudy and can spoil the product.
For coloring, we take 400 ml. of distillate, fill in the herbs for coloring and put them on another day. The coloring of absinthe is optional, it is necessary in order to make absinthe recognizable — green and form the final taste of the drink. The number and variety of herbs can be chosen for yourself, if you use wormwood when coloring, you need to be careful — it can spoil absinthe with its excessive bitterness, I would recommend not adding it to your first absinthe, and if you are going, then a little — literally 0.3 -0.5 g.
Then, filter the infusion, mix with the rest of the absinthe, dilute to the desired degree. I dilute 65-72% in the aisles.
