Last night was my husband Alaric's birthday. We celebrated by going to a place called the Shady Lady. It had a wonderful assortment of old timey drinks. This one was my favorite. Upon further research I found out that it is from New Orleans and dates back to before the Civil War. I was pleased that it had absinthe as an ingredient. Apparently it is again legal in the US (as of 2007). Yay for absinthe.
