Shari Elliker Test Drive - Absinthe the Green Fairy

It used to be illegal in the U.S. but now it's here in Maryland and Shari Elliker had to give it a taste. Absinthe, also known as the Green Fairy, didn't go down very easy during this Shari Elliker Test Drive.

Joe, from Ryleigh's Oyster Bar in Federal Hill put it all together for Shari. No one could have predicted how this Test Drive would have ended.

The Shari Elliker show, 9-noon weekdays on http://wbal.com and AM 1090 WBAL

She seems like she was having fun, but the bartender is an idiot for torching it. andthen alluding to "welllll, MAYBE you'll see a lil something, ho ho ho...":)

Kudos for her to drink enough to get drunk, though. That's some real reportin'!

ugh, this is crap. You don't burn the sugar, and you mix t 1 part absinthe to 4-6 parts water.

Look at him trying to come up with excuses for burning it. "Uh... well... you wanna get the sugar in there, sweeten it up.... help soften up the sugar... Like to... just... set it on fire"
