<nowiki>An 1855 recipe from Pontarlier, France, gives the following
instructions for making absinthe:

Macerate 2.5 kilograms of dried wormwood, 5 kilograms of anise and 5
kilograms of fennel in 95 liters of 85 percent ethanol by volume. Let
the mixture steep for at least 12 hours in the pot of a double
boiler. Add 45 liters of water and apply heat; collect 95 liters of
distillate. To 40 liters of the distillate, add 1 kilogram of Roman
wormwood, 1 kilogram of hyssop and 500 grams of lemon balm, all of
which have been dried and finely divided. Extract at a moderate
temperature, then siphon off the liquor, filter, and reunite it with
the remaining 55 liters of distillate. Dilute with water to produce
approximately 100 liters of absinthe with a final alcohol
concentration of 74 percent by volume (Arnold 1989, Scientific
American).</nowiki>
