Plural of absinthe; multiple bottles or types of the anise-flavored green liqueur made from wormwood and other herbs.
From absinthe (French), the plural formed by adding English -s. The drink itself comes from Latin absinthium (wormwood), showing how a botanical term became a beverage name.
Absinths were made by hundreds of distilleries using completely different recipes, so there was no standard formula—what you drank depended entirely on where you bought it, making 'absinthism' claims impossible to verify scientifically.
