Wormwood (Artemisia Absinthium) - 40g

Wormwood is the main ingredient of the legendary drink absinthe, which was invented in 1792 by a French doctor. Intended as a medicine, it became very popular as a recreational drink. The effects are narcotic and mildly hallucinogenic.

Usage: Soak 1 teaspoon in a cup of hot but not boiling water. The tea has a bitter taste, which can hardly be avoided. You can mix it with peppermint leaves or anise.

To make Absinthe, soak 40 grams (1½ oz.) of wormwood for a couple of weeks in ½ liter of liquor. After sifting it, the drink is ready for use. Take one small glass at first and wait for the effects before taking more.

Wormwood is a mental stimulant. The effect of wormwood is narcotic, lightly anaesthetic, giving a peaceful and relaxing feeling. In combination with alcohol or in larger dosages hallucinations might occur. Wormwood is suitable for making tea, which has a positive effect during post-flu or post-infectious periods. In small doses wormwood is a remedy against common cold, rheumatism and tapeworm. It also increases the appetite. In larger doses or when used to make Absinthe it can be poisonous and get the user very, very drunk.
