Now that it’s legal, is absinthe doomed to become the new bacon — a sacred product that is
endlessly corrupted for the sake of a cheap laugh? We suspected as much when we saw
absinthe lollipops get the sort of press attention that
bacon lollipops did, and now that UrbanDaddy has alerted us to Tailor’s absinthe Gummi Bear, we’re
really worried. Of course, it’s a good sign that the treat, which is served with a cup of espresso, is 85 percent absinthe with just a bit of sugar and gelatin (Eben Freeman wouldn’t corrupt this hallowed drink
too much), but to lesser artisans who are planning on serving absinthe cupcakes or turning Tucker Max’s infamous “absinthe doughnuts” into a reality, we beg you to stop the insanity.
