Absinthe has a long history of medicinal use. The plant is very beautiful with silvery green, fern-like foliage and fuzzy yellow flowers. The leaves have a very pleasant and strong sage like scent. The active component in absinthe is thujone. 
 
This is the plant that makes up the primary ingredient in the absinthe alcoholic beverage and is also used for making bitters. As a former bartender, I can tell you that bitters is something you will always find behind the bar. It’s used in many cocktails and as a hangover treatment by settling an upset stomach (it works-I’ve tried it!) 
 
This plant is also used as a smudge! It has a similar smell as burning sage, has been used for ritual purposes for centuries and is said to increase or enable psychic abilities.
