Comment Faire le Vrai Pastis de Marseille?

1. THE GLASS
2. THE PASTIS (20 ML)
3. THE WATER (5 TIMES THE VOLUME OF PASTIS, OR 100 ML)
4. THE ICE CUBE

The glass is fundamental to the quality of the pastis! If you can, use the small, rounded 120 ml bar glasses, stamped ‘PASTIS 51’ or ‘RICARD’. First of all because it looks ‘professional’ right from the outset and secondly because pastis mustn’t be served in tall, straight lemonade glasses: they have a negative effect on the conviviality of le pastis, which above all relies on a series of ‘It’s my shout!’. Let’s stay sensible and always consume in moderation!
