MAKING YOUR OWN ABSINTHE!

"Sam Pedro's Absinthe kits work a treat! Thanks very much Sam." Charlie (Dover, UK)


Since we started making our own Absinthe kits back in 1999 we have had nothing but positive feedback from them!

The kit comprises of a pack of pre-prepared herbs, including Wormwood, Hyssop and Calamus root.
There are full instructions (detailed below) and even a couple of paper filters to get your finished result as clear as possible.




We’ve been making absinthe kits since 1999 and our recipe has been steadily improved over the years!

Our kit has been tried and tested by many friends and customers
and they have always found the flavours of the ingredients we use to be excellent.
In the kit you will find a pack of mixed herbs and spices, including Wormwood & Calamus
organically grown and dried in Cornwall.

 Simply add the herb mix to 1litre of 50% (100 proof)or more alcohol.
 A strong rum or vodka will do.

Using anything lower than 50% will leave your drink very cloudy.

Leave to steep for 2-3 weeks, then strain the herbs from the liquid. Filter 2 or 3 times with the filter paper provided to attain clarity.

It’s now ready to drink. Pour over a sugar cube using a traditional Absinthe spoon.

*Note: our Wormwood gives the drink a high content of Thujone. Use caution!

Please enquire for more details!
