Absinthe is usually made from a wine base and is flavored with herbs. Basic herbal ingredients of Absinthe are common wormwood (Artemisia Absinthium), which gives Absinthe it’s name and it’s bitter taste, aniseed and fennel. Hyssop, lemon balm, star anise, dittany, juniper, nutmeg and licorice are the other common herbs used in the production of Absinthe.
