Ho! I’m so sad to miss that post but I began school and have so much to do! Even today I staid three hours at desk for my class tomorrow. I think I will drink some pastis for my next vacation to forget all that work!

Hmmm sounds like a nice drink and now I am quite intrigued about it. I hope they sell something like that here in the local vinmonopolet so at least I can taste it without travelling all the way to France.

I don’t like Pastis AT ALL, the taste of Anis is disgusting to me, lol ! I tried it once and never again !

I don’t like the taste of aniseed so Pastis is not one of my favourite drinks. Have you ever read the book Hotel Pastis by Peter Mayall? It’s set in Provence and is a delightful book. He is also the author of the trilogy “A Year in Provence”, a really good read.

When in France it is Pastis for Mr Mar, and a Kir for me
Cheers!

Someday I want to go to Paris and do a museum tour. Then I will sip Pastis while sitting on the banks of the Seine!

I’ve never tried pastis despite going to France several times, though I’m not a huge fan of anise drinks (such as ouzo and others). A bit of a headache starter for me!! I’ve bought along Singapore’s famous Sling despite its sickly sweet taste at http://www.travel-wonders.com/2009/08/drinks-around-world-singapore-sling.html

Wow, that sounds like a fantastic drink. Since it’s always hot here, I think it will fit perfectly into my daily regime:)
