This spirit was inspired by the original recipe that made the House of Pernod famous at the beginning of the 19th century. Pernod with absinthe plant extracts can be prepared in the traditional way by carefully pouring chilled water over a sugar cube held in an openwork spoon, or without sugar, diluted with five to seven parts chilled water. From 1830 on, artists took to this elixir in the cafés of Paris. "Green fairy" to artists and poets seeking new pleasures, absinthe became one of the strongest symbols of its era with its enigmatic color and the ritual surrounding it. It is sublimated in the works of Verlaine, Rimbaud, Baudelaire, Oscar Wilde, Manet, Toulouse-Lautrec, and later Picasso.
