Bar Brady's Friday Drink Recipes - Absinthe Thursdays @ COMMUNE in Royal Oak

MCB's GGBB were into the sweet and sticky absinthe cocktails

As we mentioned last week

MCB's Good Girls Being Bad were invited to sample

the new Absinthe cocktails this past week over at the

underground/revamped COMMUNE in Royal Oak

The GGBB met with Bronwen who runs the place and

were schooled with all the ins and outs of the new additions

to the Commune drink lineup 10 new absinthe recipes

derived from 7 European spirits

We were warned to drink them slow

because there was a "point of no return"
