Bubble Absinthe Glasses: Here's how the ritual works
First, fill the glass bubble with absinthe. Then slowly pour water into the glass. If you like, you can do this over an absinthe spoon containing a sugar cube. The absinthe will begin to mix with the water inside the bubble and rise magically in white clouds. The spectacle is fascinating!
Bubble glasses were manufactured in the late 19th century (1880-1890). But they were never very popular and appear to have ceased production in the early 1900s. Why? This may be due to the difficulty of cleaning the bubble, especially when preparing absinthe with sugar. Nowadays, with tap water pressure, it's easier, but back then, of course, things were a bit different.
