A Parisian classic, Pernod is a very popular French aniseed liqueur. It is made with coriander, star anise and mint. Best served long with water and plenty of ice.
Pernod is actually a successor of absinthe, the potent liquor popular in the 19th century. The exotic bouquet, when tasted neat, is potent and bittersweet; with the addition of water, it turns milky-opaque and has a long, licorice-like finish.
