The 'Green Fairy' has a special treat for adults this Christmas!

Absinthe is commonly referred to as the 'Green Fairy' thanks to its mystical green colour and vision inducing properties. Seeing as the kids have Santa Claus, why shouldn't adults have their own magical character to look forward to too!

For the traditional absinthe experience, pick up an Apsinthion De Luxe Christmas pack, which includes a special absinthe spoon, and follow the recipe below.

Apsinthion De Luxe is an award-winning absinthe hand-made using only the finest selections of wormwood, coriander and peppermint herb distillate.

And we have two bottles to give away. For your chance to have an interesting Christmas email us at competitions@itchygroup.co.uk with your name and your number
