How to drink Pastis
When drinking Absinth one had to add water and sugar before consumption; this is how a specific ritual and new objects like spoons with holes in them, came into existence.
Because the Pastis are already sweet, one only needs to add water to them. The ice cubes should be added after the water, otherwise they will break the most important aroma's and destroy the dill abstract.
