Well there is always the option of drinking it straight. Most absinthe drinkers pour about 1 ounce of absinthe in a glass and place a specially slotted spoon called an absinthe spoon on top of it and place between 1-3 sugar cubes on it [sugar is optional its just personal preference] Then you slowly SLOWLY pour ice cold water onto the cubes to dissolve them and the water drips into the absinthe, the absinthe will turn a milky white color, known as louching. Usually it is mixed about 3 parts water to 1 part absinthe, some do 5 parts water to 1 absinthe.
Alternatively, the bohemian method to disolve sugar you pour your one ounce of absinthe over the sugar cube and then light it on fire. DO NOT USE THIS METHOD IF YOU ARE GOING TO USE A SILVER OR GOLD ABSINTHE SPOON IT WILL DAMAGE THE SPOON!! STAINLESS STEEL IS BEST FOR THIS METHOD. After the sugar is caramelized, drop it into the absinthe and mix it with the spoon, then add the water.
Since vodka has no color and little flavor or aroma, it is usually used as a base for mixed drinks. Vodka is also drunk in shots, followed by food - zakuska - bite sized snacks that are supposed to bring out the flavor of the vodka and get your stomach ready for the next shot.
However, flavored vodka is an alternative. Flavored vodka can be its own drink or used in a mixed drink.
You can drink liqueur neat, mixed with soda water, in a cocktail, or any way you want to.
Its a drink. Like a spirit and usually just one shot; any more can become dangerous due to the high alcohol percentage. I think its the highest percentage shot served in the UK.
